Thanks to both of you for your replies, very useful. Steve, I live in Leeds at the moment, so looks like we have similar situations going on!

Hi I am just after some advice around moving to Australia as an accountant. I am a qualified ACA with a big 4 firm in the UK. By the time I intend to move, I will have 2 years post-qual experience and will have experience in external audit, internal audit, operational restructuring and financial reporting (IFRS and US GAAP). Firstly, how easily will I be able to get a visa? and secondly, how easily will I be able to find a job? Also interested to know what sort of salary I would expect, basically whether the salary would allow me a better quality of life than UK. I'm thinking primarily of living in Melbourne, but would be flexible depending on where it would be easiest to find work. Thanks in advance! Joe
