Maxolet Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) I welcome all participants of the forum! I am a motorcycle mechanic with over 10 years experience. I live in Ukraine, and now I have almost no job. my specialty is engine, gearbox, wheels, suspension. I want to ask the forum participants if there are any chances to find a job in London in their specialty? sorry if off topic.

I wish you all the best I'm not sure what employment is like in this industry whether there is a shortage or not. Maybe consider being a self employed mobile mechanic?

Pie man Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I certainly wish you well and all the success however, I couldn't think of anywhere worse to base myself or work. Try searching "Indeed UK" and search for Motorcycle Technician. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Попробуйте ввести «Indeed UK» и найдите техник по мотоциклам. To understand my experience, I have done complete repairs of honda, yamaha, suzuki, kawasaki, KTM, HD, BMW. I also have a lot of experience in repairing the BRP brand. ATVs, jet skis, in short ROTAX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old-codger Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) Good luck with your search, the way things are over here in the UK there are shortages in staff in nearly every job sector including professional trades. May be worth looking on the job search sites. Edited January 22, 2023 by Old-codger update text 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonio Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I don't work in the motorcycle trade, so I've no experience to help. But there is a shortage of people to fill skilled jobs in all industries in the UK. I've just done a search for "Motorcycle technician" and there seem to be plenty of vacancies. I'd say consider one of the UK's smaller cities; London is great if you've loads of money, but life is harder if money is short. If you speak some English - you don't need a lot to get by - you should do fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiBob Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 You also need to check out what visa you can get 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some money for a trip and rent, but I understand that it is extremely difficult to find a sponsor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
