TEMi will chair the group and oversee it under formal terms of reference, with support from a panel of senior mobility practitioners and immigration partners. 

Jamie Lingham, CEO of Absolute Immigration, was appointed as Immigration Liaison Officer, who will act as the group’s key correspondent with the Department of Home Affairs.

“Immigration is a fundamental pillar in the broader mobility landscape, but without a coordinated approach, we have been seeing missed opportunities, inconsistent messaging and fragmented feedback,” Lingham said in a statement. 

“Opening a proactive dialogue where industry and government can provide opinions and share ideas will significantly benefit both sides, as well as the industry as a whole.”
