    Start with the EasyExpat guide to London with sections on visas and finding work. The guide to London is currently being updated, but the guide to Edinburgh offers excellent advice on working & visas in the UK as well.

    Getting a work visa is quite difficult.
    "In order to hire a non-EU citizen and obtain a work permit, a company must demonstrate that the applicant has a certain set of required skills and they do not have EU candidates for the position. Smaller firms may not be willing to make the effort as they are typically not short of candidates and the approval process can take 4-6 months. For senior management, IT professionals and other highly qualified positions, the conditions are much easier to fulfill and an application properly handled with the sponsorship of the employer can be processed quicker.

    Complete information on work in the UK can be found at Home Office Working in the UK."

    Best of luck!

    Ah - I see! So Sorry I missed that. Then indeed, a work visa is no problem.

    You should still be able to make use of the Edinburgh/London guides section on finding work. Also check out EasyExpat's job listings for the UK.

    Best of luck!
