Job Hunting In Manchester

By Clare Westwood


Working In Manchester City Centre

Working in Manchester city centre can be incredibly exciting and challenging at the same time. Although Manchester is not too far away from London (a train can have you there in just a couple of hours)it is completely different. The city has a population of around three million yet there seems to be more of a community feeling than in some other large UK cities.

The idea of working in London is often appealing but for many people Manchester seems a more interesting and attractive option. Manchester also has the largest student population outside of London.

Finding accommodation in Manchester is not too big a task. There are lots of houses, flats, house shares and apartments within the city. There are also lots of affordable hotels for when you have family or friends visiting.

Like all cities, Manchester is made up of lots of different areas, some are nicer than others. The roughest areas are Moss Side and Hulme which are also closest to the student village. Crimes such as muggings often occur and you should avoid these areas at night. Obviously houses and flats outside of this area are higher in price but you will save money on travelling so it may be worth it.

If you wish to venture further out of the city centre then the south of the city is possibly the best area to choose. Areas such as Didsbury are popular upmarket choices for those wishing to commute. There are brilliant transport links into the city centre from Didsbury.

Eating out in Manchester can be really good. Whether it is a quite bite you are after or an upmarket dinig experience, Manchester has plenty of options.

Manchester is also one of the least expensive cities to live in in the UK. There are lots of opportunities to be had in Manchester and if you are thinking of moving there you may wish to register with a good recruitment agency.
