This enterprise individual contributor will work with OCI site and business leaders, HR, and local partners to turn workforce needs into practical recruiting, training, and hiring partnerships.

Help turn significant OCI data center investments into practical employment pathways and sustained community trust. This role combines enterprise reach, senior external representation, and direct ownership of partnership execution, with outcomes connected to site hiring and retention.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Build relationships with military installation leadership, transition programs, veteran and military spouse organizations, workforce boards, educational institutions, and community partners near those sites to connect qualified people with Oracle opportunities.
- Partner with OCI and HR to identify workforce needs at priority data center sites and develop site specific military hiring plans, including outreach, candidate pathways, and measures of hiring and retention.
- Work with recruiting and site teams to translate military experience into relevant roles, strengthen candidate awareness and access, and remove avoidable barriers in the recruiting and hiring process.
- Develop education, training, apprenticeship, and other workforce partnerships that prepare military connected candidates for current and future site needs, in coordination with HR and OCI leaders.
- Track partnership activity and talent outcomes with HR and OCI; use evidence from priority sites to improve programs and scale approaches that work across Oracle's infrastructure footprint.
- Serve as Oracle's senior representative to military leaders, associations, veteran organizations, and other strategic stakeholders, with emphasis on relationships that advance workforce development and community trust.
- Advise Oracle executives on military and workforce trends; collaborate with Communications and Community Engagement on a coordinated presence in military connected communities.

QUALIFICATIONS
- Distinguished leadership experience in the U.S. Armed Forces, Department of Defense, or a comparable national security organization, with credibility and established relationships across the military ecosystem.
- Experience building workforce development, talent pipeline, or public private partnership programs that connect military connected people with employment or training opportunities.
- Ability to work across business, HR, and community partners to turn local workforce needs into actionable plans and measurable outcomes.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship in VP Operations
Frame your degree equivalency before applying
Australian three-year bachelor's degrees are generally accepted as equivalent to U.S. four-year degrees for E-3 visa purposes. Get a credential evaluation from a NACES-member evaluator so employers don't raise equivalency concerns during the offer stage.
Target employers with existing LCA filing history
Companies that have filed Labor Condition Applications before move faster through the E-3 process. Search DOL's OFLC disclosure data for operations-related LCA filings to identify employers already familiar with the sponsorship workflow.
Use Migrate Mate to find VP Operations roles with E-3 sponsorship
Most VP Operations postings don't advertise visa sponsorship upfront. Migrate Mate filters roles by E-3 sponsorship readiness so you're applying to employers who've already indicated willingness to sponsor Australian candidates.
Clarify specialty occupation status during offer negotiation
VP Operations roles can vary widely. Confirm with your prospective employer that the position is defined as a specialty occupation requiring a degree in a specific field, not a general management role, before the LCA is submitted to DOL.
Sequence the LCA filing before booking your consulate appointment
The DOL must certify your LCA before you can file the DS-160 or schedule your visa interview. Build at least two weeks of LCA processing time into your start date timeline to avoid gaps between offer acceptance and your consulate appointment.
Hand off the paperwork with Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service
At the VP level, you're already managing a complex transition. Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service handles your LCA submission, DS-160 preparation, and consulate appointment documentation so you can focus on the role itself.
E-3 Visa VP Operations: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find VP Operations jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Most VP Operations postings don't specify visa sponsorship in the job description. Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals on the E-3 and filters roles by employers prepared to sponsor. Searching through a general platform means manually vetting each employer for sponsorship willingness, which adds significant time to your search.
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 VP Operations role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
It depends on how the role is defined. A VP Operations position that requires a bachelor's degree in operations management, supply chain, industrial engineering, or business administration generally qualifies. A broadly scoped general management role where any degree field is acceptable may not meet the specialty occupation standard, so the job description and LCA must reflect the specific degree requirement clearly.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for VP Operations roles?
The E-3 has a 10,500-visa annual allocation that has never been exhausted, so there's no lottery and no random selection risk. The H-1B visa cap-subject lottery means many qualified candidates aren't selected despite strong applications. For an Australian VP Operations candidate with a confirmed offer, the E-3 provides a direct, predictable path that the H-1B process cannot guarantee.
Can I switch to a different U.S. employer while on an E-3?
Yes, but the E-3 is employer-specific. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need to either apply for a new E-3 visa at a U.S. consulate or, if you're already in the U.S., your employer may file for a change of status with USCIS. You can begin working for the new employer once the new LCA is certified and the visa or status change is approved.
