Im looking at next 1-2 years to move to left seat in my current company. By any chance have you seen ATR expat direct capts hired by NZ? In the website, only turboprop FO recruitment is presented. If ever, the working conditions are good enough, I would consider flying as a FO again if left seat upgrade will happen in a reasonable time, lets say within 1 year.
Year 2 Capt (blended) - $114,599. Increased by approx 4.5k each year step until Year 11 - $155,703. These numbers will increase each year with CPI but capped at 4.25%.

Direct entry ATR captains are highly unlikely at this stage, you’ll go to the bottom of the seniority list. It does sound like the pool of ATR F/O’s with close to the hour requirements to take a command are starting to dwindle so you might be able to take one pretty quickly.
