Try this website. It might have all the info you need and you should probably let you download the forms as well: http://www.immi.gov.au/

Unless you're trying for a job with a government clearance I wouldn't see why you need Australian citizenship or permanent residency to gain a job in Australia. Just an ordinary work visa will do. Apply at the nearest Australian embassy (just type in the name of your country and the words "Australian embassy" in the search engines). Or you can visit http:www.immi.gov.au for details on the kinds of work visas available. Also visit http://www.workpermit.com/ . They're a good site with lots of resources. You don't have to pay to browse but they have a different viewpoint which can be rather helpful.
