Guest LeeVic Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Want to move to Tassie but looking at the job market at the minute it's not looking to good. Fed up here in the UK, I'd like to know what prospects are like for a plumber/Gas fitter?. It's a long way to go if you can't find work! I'm on with my Vetasses now I'm just hoping something comes to lite:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skani Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I've been trying to think of something positive for you...but no luck so far. The construction industry has taken a downturn in the last year or so. Not that that is anything new...it is up and down all the time. There is some talk that quite a few are leaving for the big money in the West Australian mines, which may leave some openings here. All I can suggest is that you keep a close eye on the internet job vacancies, although employers are reluctant to hire unless you are actually on the ground in Australia. I suppose you are aware also that you will be required to do courses here to gain Australian certification? Some tradesmen are quite resentful. Best of luck. Tasmania is a wonderful place for noisy children!:biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
