Hello All,

I am a mechanical engineer with 2 years contract management / maintenance experience, currently based in Ireland. Myself and my girlfriend want to move to Africa (western, eastern or southern). Has anyone any advice on where to begin looking for work? Also countries they might recommend? Both of us have a pretty minimal knowledge of French so this might restrict opportunities in western Africa. If anyone has any info whatsoever we would really appreciate it, as obviously we are very much at the start of this road. Thank you - Pat
