Verity, might I suggest you do two things:

a) subscribe to Global Museum which you can do online and is FREE!
b) consider posting your resume in the ezine

Either way, the site has at any one time, at least 40 current career
opportunities and often a lot more.  Take a peek at this address:

Best wishes
