Question Ground jobs

Dear All,
I am looking for information, links, contacts etc for a job on the ground with either an Airline or a ground handling company?

Can anyone enlighten me as to the do's and dont's of securing myself a job on the ground at an Airport.

The Airports within my range are ; Manchester, East Midlands, Birmingham, Leeds and Humberside. Are there particular handling agents at these airports which I should be aware of?

If anyone can give me advice or pointers then please reply or PM me for an e mail address etc.

Many thanks in advance

Flying

Try baby at EMA.
Self handling, still with a bit of the old bmi ethos left in em....
They'll work you hard, but if you show an ounce of ambition, then you could find yourself in dispatch/load control very quickly....
.
...I am biased, mind.....
