· salary during training will be between $A65-70,000
· salary upon completion of training will be between $A70-100K plus depending on the proven skills and experience, and will be determined on an individual basis.

If the salary is lower then the cost of living probably is too; shows you how expensive it is to live here compared to Oz; don't forget a lot of what we pay for things goes to the government in taxes.
I found the same thing when I consided applying for a post in the Caribbean; the salary was much lower than UK, but cost of living lower.

The salary offered is a lot less than any ATCO in the UK would be offered, regardless of location.
Who, in their right mind, would want make such a move to a country which, on the face of it is a great place to live but in reallity has higher taxes than the UK, greater relative unemployment figures and a climate which would test the most experienced resident of the Sahara desert.

You are kidding right?
On that salary living in Brisbane you could easily afford a house and send your kids to private school. Not to mention swim in the most beautiful beaches 8 months of the year, enjoyin a temp range of 8-35C, moderate sub-tropical climate. Your kids grow up playing in the home pool 8 months of the year, playing outdoors everyday, rain or sunshine and enjoy a clean beautiful city, with the best sporting climate in the world.
If you don't agree, please dont come we have enough POMS to last us forever.
Like living in Swanwick or Prestwick could compare.
And yes EuroGoose please come home. Bring that wonderful family with you, Hunter still has a seat for you.

No, no wait, it was the single bedroom $650,000 flat in Harrow that I rented across the road from the school that didn't have ANY grass for the kids to play and where I had to leave my car out on the road to be broken into twice that still took me an hour and a half to get to work with all the traffic in the pissing down rain .......... that will always hold a special place in my heart.................rrrriiiiiiigggghhhhhhhtttttt.

Side note, my titties bounce with laughter everytime some idiot does a straight currency conversion from one country to their own/another and bases their perceived level of potential living standard on that. Very very naive.

'Global Search for ATCOs' sounds like a pitch for a reality TV show.....

Dirty Pierre & ATC Groove,
Nah, not yet...Although Brisbane Tower would be nice
Not Hunter please..then I have to sit next to Blandy & Carl again
It would probably be TOPS, sitting with other ex Euro, who must be doing his head in over the night shifts
...Where are you TT , have you been banned again ?

No wait, that'll be the UK in January
Here's a further question.........will there be a "relocation package" to help with the move? Dreaming? Probably, but Nav Canada certainly did to the tune of $15000 CAD (granted it was receiptable but still)
