Pumpkin, what do you think my chances are of getting a decent job (i.e. not in a shop or a bar - I'm not good with the public!) while on a WHV and living on a permanent basis with my Aussie boyfriend who has a good steady job? If I explain to them that I'm not going to bugger off travelling that should stand me in good stead right? I'm moving to the Central Coast in June, having a month off to settle in before I start looking for work.

Depending on your type of work, agencies would be a good start.
If you are in the right place at the right time you will be fine. :)
