Question Aus Pod wanting to work in UK

Podiatry Arena members do not see these ads
I've been working as a qualified podiatrist for two years in Australia and would really love to travel to the UK and work a little whilst sight seeing for approx a year or less. I was wondering if anyone knows of any recruitment agencies that could offer a package for employment and possibly accomodation?
Thanks :)

Hi Julz,
I'm UK registered and get emails from:
aneta.holos@medic-international.co.uk
seeking Pod's to work in the UK and internationally.
The web-site is http://www.medic-international.co.uk/australian.asp

They even have an Australian office to help you out. Just a friendly remark that I haven't used them before so can't attest if they are good, bad or indifferent!

Good Luck and keep us informed how you go!
Julian

Julz,

I worked on and off in the UK over '04-'06 and can strongly recommend registering with a few different agencies. Try Reed Health and Holt Medical as well. You can then weigh up the different opportunities/job offers, and once you have a bit of UK work experience you are in a stronger negotiating position in terms of hourly rates etc.

Last I heard a lot of NHS work was drying up due to funding issues - locums eat up so much revenue - so the case might be different if you work in the private sector (where there are relatively more work opportunities now).

Podiatryzone.com used to be a great intermediatory for jobseekers/employers/agencies for UK and Australia, but unfortunately doesn't exist anymore - does anyone have any idea what happened to it or if something similar replaced it?

Helen
