If you didn't get enough points for an invite under Express Entry, then you'll need to look at other options. Without knowing more about you it's hard to suggest what those might be, what is the job you'll be doing and what qualifications do you have?

Re: Moving to St.John's
Do have a look at the Atlantic Provinces Pilot Program... that may be your route to success for PR..

I echo what Christmasoompa said above - what is your profession?

Thanks Christmasoompa and Siouxie.
The info that has come up on here has been invaluable, I'd naively thought getting a job leapfrogged me passed the requirement to fill in a PR request and it just happened. In the UK is does for EU citizens after 5 years, maybe after the UK exits the EU we get the whole CANZUK thing sorted and it will! � ����
I think the Atlantic Immigration Programme is the most likely route, but have read about the NL Provincial Nominee Programme also. I'm checking with the employer on these now. The profession is Software Developer.

What working in Canada will do for you is give you extra points for Express Entry or potentially additional routes for a PNP / PR application.. no leapfrogging available regardless of what country you come from.
It's highly unlkely that Canada would change the Immigration regulations just for Brits - Brexit or no, there's no need for them to do so, it's a popular country that people worldwide want to immigrate to. Canada has a fair system - you either qualify for one of the many routes or you don't!
