If you want to end up in the UK eventually then convert your licence first and then start about finding a job. A few years back at CTC, now L3, they would hire instructors for 18 months on the premise of allowing those that wished to then be put forward for an interview with a partner airline. One of our instructors was on our type rating course, so that's an option.

Otherwise just doing what everyone else does and applying to the usual low cost suspects, mainly Ryanair, Jet2 and Flybe. It's competitive and hard work, but everyone I know that didn't make the grade at CTC managed to find a job through another avenue. Hiring in the UK is always good for low hours guys/girls if you persist. It will be impossible to line up a job opportunity from where you are at the moment, so you'll have to take a leap of faith and do your best. If it means having to take other employment whilst finding a job then you won't be the first down that road nor the last.

Best of luck.
