Thousands of Brits moving to spectacular city with tripled salaries sent warning

Brits keen to move across the world to a stunning coastal city with the promise of three times their salaries in the UK have been warned by a travel expert.

Aussie recruiters are looking for 31,000 UK nationals to ease the employment crisis in Perth.

Already 60,000 British people have asked for more information with a look to move – and officials are still set to search in Ireland too.

Delegates from the Western Australian Government have since arrived in the UK to tempt Brits with better weather and higher pay.

Nurses, teachers, police, miners, doctors, plumbers and electricians are just some of the roles being sought out – and some specialisms will attract three times their current salary here in Blighty.

He continued: “Contact your chosen bank before you touchdown. It's likely that you'll need to register in person but at least you'll be able to book an appointment and find out what documents you'll need to present.

“For the first few days without a local bank account, consider using a Currency Card to ensure a competitive exchange rate when converting from pounds to the Australian dollar.

"For a temporary relocation, this may even be the best way to manage day-to-day spending rather than facing the rigmarole of setting up a new bank account abroad.”
