Any disadvantages with EU member state ATPL trying to get a job in the UK?

Hi,
I am a British Mil pilot on exchange flying duties in a EU country.
I can quite easily get my JAA CPL/IR with ATPL credit theory whilst I am abroad, away from the UK and then when I go back to the UK, I can transfer my EU issued ATPL to a UK CAA one after living in the UK for 185 days.

Does anyone know if I would be disadavantaged trying to get a job with a UK airline since the initial ATPL would have been issued abroad, or does it not matter.
Thanks very much
