Contractors or their employees who are considering working abroad for a few years can obtain good advice on the opportunities available from Edwina Shanahan (eshanahan@migrationabroad.com)
At the moment it appears that there is still considerable amount of work available in Australia where wages for work in mines generally start at about $105,000 Aus Dollars per annum based on a 35 hours week (approx €62,000). Edwina Shanahan has regular contact with employers from Perth, Brisbane, and other areas and her office in Kilkenny can assist with obtaining licences for electrical work in the various States in Australia. Traveling to Australia without the required licenses could result in having to work for as low as $40,000 Aus Dollars per annum as you would then be in a situation where all your work has to be supervised. Electricians are still on the Skills Shortage List in Australia and this speeds up the process with a visa is applied for. Being an English speaker also helps with job prospects.
Opportunities are also available in most provinces in Canada, but again a State License is required in order to get the top rates. Edwina can also advise the job opportunities there and assist with the processing of documentation.
