Guest andylane Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Me and the wife have decided to emigrate to perth. She is a registered nurse and i am a manufacturing Engineer (defence land systems) Used to wok for BAe Systems (RO Defence) in Barrow in Furness i have looked for this type of work on the net but havent seen any. Is there work in this field in perth or is a manufacturing engineer not sought after in Perth. I was told Adelaid was the place to be but it seems a little to quite for me but who knows if there is work there then maybe a change of mind might be needed on location. regards Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have called the new thread Manufacturing Enginerr/Nurse and if you et lots of replies on one or both of the threads, I will merge the threds for you later on. Have you tried ding a search on Google Australia and telling it to search for web-pages in Australia? Irritatingly, I don't kow anything at all about your field of work so I don't know how to help you to search for info. What are land defence systems, please? Something military? Also, what is RO Defence (engineering?) I'm sorry to be so thick but if you can give me more of an idiot's guide to what your joib involves, I will do my best to try to help you to find some proper information about the possibilities for you in Oz.

There's work around. I was originally aerospace but that particular area is tight & it might be the same for RO. I suspect your field will be well represented by ex services? However, provided you're flexible there should be no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Land systems for Gill are tanks, howitzers Motar systems anything thats heavy artillary and tracked weapon systems. So where right in thinking millitary! (RO Defence) stands for Royal Ordnance Defence. A company under the British Airways Engineering (BAe) Umbrella. I was lead to believe there was a Defence company in Adelaid but not sure. But if Australia make there own tanks and Large Artillary i could be of use there. I am flexible but would there be do you think any companies that would take a chance on my self with only this sort of knowledge. I would like to try my hand at Project Engineering as i have touched on this as part of being a Manufacturing Engineer as you probally know yourself. Awaiting your reply Andylane.

I'm sure there will be plenty of jobs which your experience will fit nicely. You'll probably find that you'll get the chance to broaden your experience base. There's a mining boom going on there (WA) at the moment so mines infrastructure support companies may be particularly interested. In fact without the mining boom manufacturing would be very tight... China, a lot of manufacturing is now done there... what's your mandarin like . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
