Hey Paul!
I'm also from Liverpool and looking to move to Germany to find work as a plumber. Just wondering if you did go? If so can you or anyone help me with advice on how to make this happen.

Cheers!

To work as a self-employed or freelance plumber in Germany, a "Meister" title is necessary. I don't know what is the equivalent in your country and if that is recognized in Germany.
Without it, you can only work at apprentice-level (=very low pay).
