Advice needed on how to get an airport based job.

Not sure if there's a better forum to post this in.. eds please move if necessary.

Have recently got fATPL and am now looking for ways to break into the aviation world and do a bit of networking and make some contacts. Thought a good start would be getting an aviation based job. So the usual stuff springs to mind.. baggage handler, dispatcher etc.

Was just wondering if there are any specific agencies for this kind of thing.. who do you approach to get an airport job. Also, any recommendations as to which jobs might give maximum networking opportunities (pref with those with hiring influence!). All advice gratefully recieved.

Also, i can only realistically commute to Heathrow from where i live at the mo' if that's any bearing. Would also be interested in non-airport aviation jobs in London.
