Reporting directly to the Enterprise Chief Compliance Office, this senior leader will manage a team of AML and sanctions compliance professionals responsible for enterprise wide AML and sanctions compliance for regulated Intuit entities across multiple jurisdictions in the United States, Canada, and Ireland/EU where Intuit and its subsidiaries provide regulated offerings.
Intuit's money and AML-regulated products span three of the world's most recognized consumer and small business financial brands.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship in Compliance Officer
Translate your Australian credentials for U.S. employers
ASIC-regulated compliance experience and APRA familiarity don't map automatically to U.S. job descriptions. Frame your background around equivalent U.S. frameworks like SEC, FINRA, or OCC oversight so hiring managers recognize your specialty occupation standing before the E-3 question even comes up.
Target employers with active LCA filing histories
Search the DOL's Office of Foreign Labor Certification disclosure data to identify companies that have certified LCAs for Compliance Officer roles. Employers who have filed before understand the process and are far less likely to stall when you bring up E-3 sponsorship.
Raise E-3 sponsorship early in salary negotiations
The LCA requires your offered wage to meet the prevailing wage for your role and location. Bring this up before final offer stage so the employer's HR or legal team can confirm the salary structure meets DOL requirements without renegotiating after you've accepted.
Clarify your E-3 eligibility before interviews
Many U.S. compliance teams default to assuming international hires need H-1B visa sponsorship, which triggers lottery anxiety. Confirming upfront that you're an Australian citizen eligible for the E-3, which has no lottery and no cap, removes the most common reason employers hesitate to proceed.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for your LCA and paperwork
Once you have a written offer, use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA submission to DOL and your full consulate package. This keeps the process moving without placing the compliance documentation burden on an employer unfamiliar with the E-3.
Verify your degree field supports a specialty occupation claim
USCIS requires a direct relationship between your degree and the Compliance Officer role. A degree in law, accounting, finance, or business administration supports the claim clearly. A general arts or unrelated science degree may need supplementary work experience documented under the three-for-one equivalency rule.
E-3 Visa Compliance Officer: Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find Compliance Officer jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. Rather than filtering through general job boards that don't surface visa status, Migrate Mate connects you directly with employers who have either filed E-3 LCAs before or have indicated willingness to sponsor, saving you from cold outreach to companies unfamiliar with the visa.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Compliance Officer role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, Compliance Officer roles typically qualify when the position genuinely requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field such as law, finance, accounting, or business administration. Roles that accept any degree or substitute experience freely are harder to support. The strongest E-3 cases show a direct theoretical and practical connection between the degree field and the compliance function the employer needs filled.
How does the E-3 visa compare to the H-1B for Compliance Officer roles?
The E-3 has no annual lottery and no numerical cap, so you can apply any time of year once you have a job offer and a certified LCA. H-1B registration opens once per year and selection is random, meaning qualified candidates often wait one to three years before getting a slot. For Compliance Officers with Australian citizenship, the E-3 is a direct path without the lottery risk that makes H-1B planning unpredictable.
Can I switch Compliance Officer employers on an E-3 without losing status?
You can change employers, but you need a new LCA certified by the DOL and a new E-3 visa issued for the incoming employer before you start work. There's no portability provision like AC21 under the H-1B. If you're currently in the U.S. on E-3 status, timing the transition carefully so your current visa validity covers the gap is essential to maintaining lawful status.
