My boyfriend and I would like to live in England, but not London center. Do you know another city ?? (we would love to be nearby the sea (but not an obligation), and we must have an airport to go to france sometimes, and something quite alive, where you have things to do and can meet people)

He is a cook who doesn't speak good english, do you have a good website to find him a job ? How much can he ask per week ?

Thanks a lot for your help

Have you ever heard about Brighton? Not that far from Gatwick

About employment websites, you should have a look to that topic: find a job in England I am sure you'll be able to find out how much you can expect on these websites ;)

Yes I saw the city of Brighton on internet, looks good but I didn't find an airport, is it ? How do you go to Brighton ?
Otherwise, I saw these cities : Southampton, Bornemouth, someone knows or can tell me more ?

Thank you for the sites, we'll check it out.

Hi there, www.jobsite.co.uk and www.jobserve.com are both very good sites as most of the agencies post on them. I used them all the time when I was in the UK.

Hope this helps?

Try the local 'job centre' there's one in almost every town, they let you use the phone too!

Monster (http://monster.co.uk) works quite well; it helped me find a job in the UK from Florida in just a few days. 

(Note that UK firms will be far more likely to consider you if you've arranged your own Tier-1 work permit (http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk) in advance!
