Hello everyone!
Have been on here a bit over time, just sporadic random posts & not being able to decide where or what I feel towards moving abroad.

Well, with me having retrained away from the Print Industry nearly 4 years ago & qualified as a Training Electrician, the jobs aren't exactly rolling around in that sector in the UK. The self employed subbie lark is day by day or week by week & cannot see any progress. With a really good Mate already having his PR in OZ (Tough to get out there) I'm looking at NZ. Have close family here but only myself, no Mortgage, no heavy bills, pets or children to take, so hoping this will alleviate the hoops to jump?

Lots to look at, but alongside this will be attending a London Show & the Immigration site will be taking a hammering.

If anybody has any advice particular to my job I'd love to hear it. Having lived in Cornwall & the Channel Islands I love being by the coast. Any good suggestions for a keen Surfer/Cyclist?...
Thanks
Andy

Hello Andy, im a safety advisor in the south island. (Oamaru, Nth Otago) and i can say that they are looking for Sparky's out this way. The country is great for cycling and surfing. Look into the area, see if you like it.

Hi there Claret73 and welcome to this wee forum.

Perhaps start a new topic in the main NZ forum about Sparky registration here in NZ .

Happy Posting around the place.
