    Yep, that's me, Irish tickets are being transfered to the UK CPCS Blue at the moment, and I am sending out CV's with a UK address (a friends) in Romford in London, I lived over there before and I was on to the revenue about me NI number, I can retrieve this when I get there so I more or less have everything sorted, all I need now is the start :o

    I'm not sure which companies are doing it, but cross rail have a ton of excavation drivers working on it and will do for years to come I would think, so might be worth looking into who the work is sub contracted out too.

    That job is probably loaded with plant hire firms........

    why dont you ring up a plant hire firm and ask them for a job?

    Why does it have to be the crossrail job?

    There are hundreds of other projects ongoing in the capital so anyone who really wants a job will get one
    ,by the way.... you will need your self employment details sorted out,you get this card from the revenue.
