Anyone living in Malta? Anyone working in IT out there?

I'm in IT in the web industry here in the UK. I've been a web developer for about 7 years (HTML, PHP, AJAX, mySQL, SQL-Server and more). In that time I have been a senior developer, team leader and am currently in a senior project management role (I also have a PRINCE2 PM qualification).

Some questions:

• Anyone know if there are many opportunities for people with my experience in Malta?
• If so, where are the best places to look on the web?
• Are property prices really as bad as I've been reading? Can I still live somewhere fairly reasonable for a web developer / project manager's wage?
• What kind of quality of life can I expect for about 35-45,000 EUR?

All advice gratefully received! I am happy to provide more info if necessary.

Thanks.

Hi

We were looking at moving to Malta (amongst other places). My fiance works in IT (more or less what you do by the looks of things). I have seen a few adverts for web developers but the pay looks very very small (around EUR 20/25k). Have a look at the times of malta online, that is the best I have found so far. This new smart city development looks good, but they don't seem to have even started on this..

Sorry I can't be more help, but I suppose it is a start..

Hi there,

Have a look on http://www.pentasia.com/, I think there are a few jobs a month going here for web developers decent salaries too, but you need to be prepared to enter the iGaming arena, lots of them here, i myself have just moved here, working as a graphic designer for an iGaming company also.

For you though I think, having Front end and backend developer skills and the flexibility to do both would be an advantage in this industry think.

Loving Malta so far... few teething problems with having a family, but hopefully after a post on this website we can sort a few of these issues out.

Look on here also http://online.casinocity.com, and do a search for Malta in the Jurisdiction field, in advanced search, you will see how many companies there are here, worth a try.

Good luck!

Any general idea on what kind of opportunities there are for SAP peeps out there? Just curious...
