Bernard Foley opened the scoring just a couple of minutes in with an early penalty for the visitors, but the kick was to be their only score in the opening 40 minutes.
From a scrum, the hosts managed to get the ball out wide before Ben Morgan battled his way through a couple of Australia players to the opening try.
Australia reduced the deficit early in the second half when Rob Horne set up Foley to dive over under the posts, leaving them just three points behind.
Morgan appeared to have put England back in a commanding position when he added his second of the afternoon, but Will Skelton came off the bench to bring the visitors straight back into it.
However, George Ford split the uprights twice in the final 15 minutes to ensure that England kept themselves in front for their second autumn win.
