Hi there

Where abouts would I find work advertised in Brussels? I'm not a French speaker but every jon I've seen so far wants someone with fluent French :(

Any advice on working over here would be great

Thanks

Hi MammaBrussels, not sure about where the jobs would be advertised but there are lots of international HQs in Waterloo and Ive met plenty of Brits working there who have no need to speak French as the business language is English. Imagine this would be the same for other international co's in Brussels too.

Good luck!

In fact I know it is as my dh's and other friends company are the same.

Have you thought about contacting any on a prospective basis?

It depends on whether you have a specific skill, where you look for a job - lots of finance / pharmaceutical / IT jobs which require no French.

Admin jobs sometimes not requiring French are advertised frequently on www.xpats.com

What line of work are you looking for?

How easy you will find it will depend on your skills and experience.
