Plumber Pipe fitter work in Canada?

[RCIRL]

Hello all..Due to the recession here in Ireland I have to find some work abroad.

I am considering Canada as a good opportunity. I am a fully qualified Plumber/Pipe fitter and a coded Oxy Ace welder. I also have ARC and TIG experience. Along with my pipe fitting experience I am fully qualified to work on plumbing and heating systems. Residential and Industrial.

Would my qualifications land me a good job in Canada? Also can anyone provide some solid recommended agencies that are involved with trades people and can set up visas flights/accommodation and so on?

Many Thanks. RC.

Hi RC,

Your trade is in demand in certain areas of Canada. Do you have a province in mind? If you PM your email I can send you a free report on job descriptions, average salary, job demand, current vacancies etc.
Cheers Louise

Hello Louise. Thank you for your reply. I just sent you a email. I sent it to the email address you have on your home page.

Since I've never been to Canada I dont really have a province in mind.

Look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi RC

I don't know if you've looked into the Provincial Nominee Program, but thought I'd leave you a link for the BC site....

Provincial Nominee Program - Ministry of Advanced Education and Labour Market Development

Here are a couple of BC links that might provide some further information as well....

Plumbing Officials' Association of British Columbia
BC Work Futures - Occupational Profile
All Plumber Jobs in BC - Wowjobs
