Hi Louise, I’m a BA flight attendant but I work just 33%. This means I do three long haul trips and then have six weeks off. Many of my colleagues live in Dubai with their partners or husbands and are sponsored.  I would like to find some ex-pat work (I often temp in UK as I have good admin and IT skills). Are you able to tell me if there are any options for someone like me?

Hi, thanks for your question.  Unfortunately you would first of all have to find a job here that would sponsor you as you cannot live here permanently without being sponsored.  If you have a UK passport you can come for a visit for 30 days but you are not allowed to work.
