USA bought iPhone work in Australia?

I work for a USA based company, however I am based in Australia. The company are upgrading all phones for staff and would like to send me an iPhone from the USA. Will it work in Australia the same as if I bought it here (Australia)? They would be looking at getting iphone13 (or pro max, not sure exact one yet)

iPhone 13 Pro Max

They will need to get an unlocked phone from Apple. A problem with this is that the phone will have no warranty coverage in Australia. If it would need warranty service, it would need to be returned to the US. A better plan would be for them to finance an iPhone purchase in Australia then you will have warranty coverage.
