Nearly all large software companies do have a presence in AU (i.e. SUN, HP, IBM, Oracle, etc.) so look at their respective websites and you will likely find a match to your skillset.

Note that most companies would look at those with PR and are not necessarily interested in sponsering someone, but again it doesn't hurt to try.

The majority of product manager types of jobs will be concentrated in Sydney and Melbourne as that is where you get most of the MNCs.

Best of luck
