Australian/New Zealander Family just moved to Bordeaux

Hello, My husband and I have just moved to Bordeaux with our 2 young daughters.  We are hoping to find work here and settle for a while.  My husband is a mechanic and has been applying for jobs via French websites and agencies online but we are wondering if anyone can suggest any agencies in Bordeaux with English speaking staff - he is open to any type of job, it doesn't have to be a mechanics position.  Also are there any English magazines/papers here (like the TNT magazine that is (or used to be) in London)?
Many thanks
Anne

Hi there. Welcome to Bordeaux. You have moved to a great place. Sorry can't help with the work situation but if you are interested in meeting up with a kiwi (Hawkes Bay) /french family let me know. We have 3 daughters and have lived for a few years now.
