Thousands of Skilled Brits Get Ready To Move Down Under

WELLINGTON, New Zealand, October 6, 2010 - Every year, thousands of skilled Brits choose to leave the UK in search
of a better lifestyle. This year will be no different, as predicted by the
number of pre-sale tickets to the Opportunities expos to be held in London
and Manchester this October.

Approximately 14,358 Brits migrated permanently to Australia between July
and December 2009 according to Australian Immigration. In New Zealand, in the
3 months to December 2009, 4,299 Brits sought long term residence, according
to Statistics New Zealand.

"The increasing number of baby-boomers entering the age of retirement
means that Australia and New Zealand is and will continue to face human
resource shortages" says Hayley Roberts, CEO of Working In Ltd.

In New Zealand, the global economic recovery is proving positive, with
predictions by the March 2010 NZIER Consensus forecast that the economy will
grow by 2.8% in the year to March 2011.

In addition, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) recently released a
report highlighting Australia as one of the leaders of the global economic
recovery, post-recession.

With growing economies, the demand for skilled workers grows. Reports are
numerous on the need for more engineers, teachers, health practitioners,
teachers, builders, plumbers and electricians. Australian and New Zealand
employers are eager to talk to skilled British workers that are looking to
change their lives by moving downunder.

Australian and New Zealand employers are flying to the UK to attend the
Opportunities expos and meet with British skilled migrants wanting to move to
those countries. Additionally, Working In Visa's unique Journey to Work
experts will also be there, with hundreds of current vacancies from other
Australian and New Zealand employers.

Over one million British expats live in Australia, while New Zealand has
over 200,000. Lifestyle is the most common reason given by Brits who choose
to move abroad.

"In the UK, you have little time to expand your learning, but here people
live a lot better. They work and they have time to go home and just forget
about work," comments Carl, whose wife, Donna-Marie accepted a nursing
position in Australia earlier this year after visiting the expo.

The October Opportunities expos, Working In's flagship events, will hit
London (9-10 October) and Manchester (16-17 October) with the goal of helping
Brits start their new life in Australia or New Zealand.

Tickets can be purchased online or at the door. Each entry costs 15.00
pounds sterling and all online ticket holders go in the draw to have their
visa processed for free (Australia and New Zealand only), a prize worth over
3500 pounds sterling.
