I currently live overseas and I have an Australian employer willing to sponsor me for a 121 visa under the Employer Nominated Scheme. Once the visa is granted, am I required to work for that employer? Are there any conditions on the 121 visa that require me to work for the sponsoring employer after landing in Australia. Given that this is a permanent visa, can I land in Australia on this visa and start work in another job or occupation?

121 is a PR visa so you could do what you want once it is granted BUT on applying for the visa you are declaring that you will work in the offered position and the employer is declaring they will employ you in it. To not even attempt to try out the job could be seen as 'giving fraudulent and incorrect answers' which can lead to your visa being withdrawn.
