Well, a bit about my self....
Im 27 live in the UK and have finally decided that I want to start the process of living in Singapore, at the moment I am looking at around getting to grips with 2/3 year plan.
I have had a look at a few jobs on line and I am more than qualified, I work in the property Sector as a facility manager and have various degrees and qualifications.
But I dont know where to start! Can anybody recommend any UK agencies that specialise in recruiting for jobs in Singapore? I have been to quite a few working abroad expos but have never been given any direct contacts.
Also, is there anybody on the board moved over at my age? How are you finding it?
Thanks for all of your help!

Where to start?!
Honest question: Why do you want to move to Singapore? Is it the hot, humid, weather every day of the year? Do you reckon it will be financially lucrative? (If so, how much is your earning potential in the UK and what do you believe it will be here?) Is it a thing for the women in SE Asia? (This is a perfectly OK reason, don't worry!) Or something else? Please don't say it's because you saw a Discovery channel special on Singapore highlighting some engineering marvel.

zzm, OP is young and at his age, if he wants to explore working in Singapore (or SE Asia in general), I think it is good that he comes here and experiences it himself.
However, if he is looking for long-term plans here, I'd also ask him to consider your points.
OP, are you planning to move over for good, or just for a stint? Unfortunately I'm not familiar with your industry so I can't advise much other than telling you to tap on your LinkedIn network. Very handy, actually.
Good luck.

Right, and that would be a valid answer to my questionthe lynx wrote:zzm, OP is young and at his age, if he wants to explore working in Singapore (or SE Asia in general), I think it is good that he comes here and experiences it himself.
