My husband works in conservation for the County Council in rural Suffolk, lovely job, appalling paid but he's happy. Have seen equivalent jobs advertised with Dept. of Conervation in NZ but alll state he needs work permit to apply. Usual probelm of us needing job offer before submitting EOI but needing permit before applying for jobs. Basically does anyone think a job would be offered to an applicant from Uk when a large part of the job relies on knowledge of native species etc.? Are these 'nice' jobs oversubscribed despite low pay? Anyone working currently in such a position?
