Try Jobs In Cyprus. Listing Job offers in Cyprus.
It lists jobs in many professions including accountancy.
However my advice wouldbe to come over for a week or two and see what you can find. Its much easier to find work if you are actually here and will give you a better idea of whether or not the move is right for you.

Regards Veronica

do your research well and make sure you have enough money for a flight home should things not work out as cyprus wages are low however i feel that the quality of live would be better.

" but I'm getting to negative due to no responses etc."

Hi Nicki,
My daughter had a similar problem when she wanted to work out here. She found that prospective employers did not believe that she would actually emigrate. She didn't start getting responses until she gave a Cyprus address on her applications!

For that reason I agree with Veronica, come out for a week or two in advance and see what you can find.

My partner and I came out in June for a holiday we had thought about living in Cyprus for some time

I secured a job as a midwife before we left we found a house to rent and exchanged email addys with the owner and kept in touch on a weekly basis we let our house out in the UK we moved here on 27th Sept My partner found work by the end of our 1st week so i reckon do fly out spend a week going around different areas it may not be the job of your dreams but once you are here permently you have a better chance of finding something else

Also life is a gamble as long as you have contatcs back home and always keep enough money to fly back what have you got to loose!!

Good Luck
