457 visa questions - checking my options
hi,
i am working for a consulting company "A" but sponsored by a management company "B". So technically employer of "B". Not really happy with "A", can i make a switch by applying for any position advertized by recruitment company "C" for their client "D" ?
I'll simply let the recruitment company "C" know that company "B" is my management / payroll company? Am i allowed to do that?
Please note that i am in 457.

cheers

are you going to be changing employers? if so then you will need to get a new 457

You need to remain employee of B or get a new 457. If you can go to someone else office whilst still being B's employee you should be ok. Why not talk to B about being placed elsewhere.
