Thank god we found this website!

My husband and I are seriously considering moving to the Cayman Islands We live in Alberta and have very stable good paying jobs here however we both want a "life adventure" Luckily we are young (mid twenties) with no children other than our pooch.

My husband is a firefighter and I am a paramedic. Has anyone been in similar fields and made the move?

We want to stay in our career choice and we havent been able to find much of anything regarding our professions on the island. We've contacted a recruiting agency and we are waiting to hear back from them however it seems they caterered to finance and legal jobs.

We are going to continue researching the island, reading blogs and keeping our ears open for any info....so any feedback would be welcomed!!

Don't really know about your recruitment in your fields but a Dr Shetty hospital is being built and there should therefore be a demand for medical personnel. Probably best to get on the phone and call around. The recruitment agencies do mainly deal in admin and finance. I think it would be difficult to get a firefighter job as the Govt are pretty broke and less likely to hire foreigners. Still you could get the number of the fire chief and call him up.. You are more likely to get a response by calling than emailing. Have a look at ecayonline.com.
Good luck.
