I'm sorry that I can't answer your question specifically but my sources tell me that if you want a job here in the Uk or Ireland then the man to speak to is Andy Fone at SkyBlue at Exeter airport.
Very respected amongst the ATR fraternity I hear.

OOOPS! Yes Mr. ATR himself.
He comes highly recomended from many quarters. I think if you're looking at the UK / Irish market he's the only bloke.
I'm looking forward to meeting him myself.

I believe it's around £13,500 +VAT....but you'd better call them to check.
