Who assesses this occupation

Last confirmed against the department's list on 30 July 2026.

This occupation reads differently for the 186 and 482

Two editions of ANZSCO are current at once, and the department applies ANZSCO 2022 to the employer sponsored visas while everything above follows ANZSCO 2013.

The definition is identical in both editions, but the published duties are not:

• assisting and encouraging the development of objectives, strategies and plans aimed at achieving optimal customer experience and satisfaction and the effective use of organisations' resources and capabilities
• identifying business and organisational gaps and opportunities through application of continuous improvement and change methodologies
• analysing and evaluating current systems, capabilities and structures
• advising clients on recommendations based on analysis of current-state gaps to provide solutions to organisational problems
• preparing and recommending proposals to revise methods and procedures, alter work flows, redefine job functions and support organisational innovation and improvements
• assisting in implementing approved recommendations
• providing coaching and mentoring to individuals and teams to build specific capabilities

If you are going for a 186 or a 482, this is the wording that governs you. Everything above governs the points tested routes.
