Working In The Opportunities Overseas Expo London 12-13 November. Manchester 19-20 November


If the rising price of living and job market uncertainty in the UK is getting you down, then it could be time to make your move.


L


ast year, nearly 10,000 British nurses left the UK to advance their careers overseas. To find out more, visit Opportunities


Overseas Expo, the UK’s largest interna- tional job and migration event. This will enable you to meet leading employers and official government representatives who have flown in from Australia, New Zealand and Canada especially to recruit British workers. A range of roles are on offer including anaesthetic technicians, CSSD technicians, ICU nurses , qualified midwives and mental health nurses. You can investigate job opportunities


and meet migration specialists to guide you through every aspect of the move, from transferring funds and arranging a visa, to moving pets and belongings and opening an overseas bank account. To attract quality candidates, many healthcare employers are offering


attractive salary and entitlements for nurses, often providing flexible work hours and salary packages that can include health insurance, pensions, professional development allowances, ongoing refresher and support programmes and assistance with relocation and visa costs. Expo general manager Spencer


Hawkes believes the lure of working overseas is strong for UK nurses: “At a time when the NHS is under pressure to


cut costs and staffing levels, countries like Australia are expanding their health services and providing employment benefits that the UK simply doesn’t match. Wages are considerably higher, hours are generally shorter and conditions are better. For a busy nurse working in a British city, the prospect of hitting the beach at the end of the day with a decent amount of money in their pocket is very appealing. I don’t blame them for wanting a better life for them and their family.” The Opportunities Overseas Expo is


in London (12-13 November) and Manchester (19-20 November). For a list of job roles and to book
