First VFR/IFR job-help?

I'm a big fan of the forum, it seems to have lots of help for beginners like me . I have just reached 1000hrs in the states and and coming back to start my first VFR job in the UK next year . Just wondering if anyone can recommend any computer flight planning programmes to make life easier . I will have a GPS , but it is more the planning side of things . ie. which frequency to talk on and who and when to file flight plans etc. I do have a UK CPL , but I got it back in 1985 and haven't been back since . I'm sure things have changed a lot in the last 20yrs . The job involves operating from a private heliport and operating all over the UK and Ireland .
If all goes well I will be offered an single pilot IFR post the following year , so any hints or tips you could pass on would be greatly appreciated .
Thank You
