Work / Girl looking for job speaking English apart from teaching English. Ideas? [30]

I will be moving to Poland soon to live.

I know it's cheeky but as I am only learning the basics of Polish language and I would say I am not on a conversational level as yet, I would perhaps like to work for an American/U.K company that's based in Poland.

I have been looking for companies that hire English speaking people but I can't find any. Even a Polish company that needs an English speaking receptionist, accountant or even working in the background.

The down side is I can't speak Polish but I am learning hence why I need to work in an enviroment where my speaking English is essential or normal without having to essentially speak Polish too. I am not bilingual as yet but it sure is my goal.

Anyway just wondered are there any expats from English speaking countries that works for a company that pays well where they don't have to speak Polish or any agencies or companies looking for an English person to work for them?

p.s, I know I can become a native English teacher, so apart from the obvious teaching choice, i would like other options and opinions that would be appreciated, Thankyou :)

It's a great way to know the market and how it works, I think. There's always other ways, but in the beginning, you can make a lot of valuable contacts and gain a lot of valuable information simply by teaching the right people.

Thats a good statement, makes sense.

call centre work is always available

Where? Anywhere is a start i guess

I know that the level in Polish I have is limited therefore I cannot get a job in the chosen sectors I would have liked first choice, but I always believe in hope and chances. Going to Poland is a risk in itself, for anyone to up and move to another country with a complete different language and culture is'nt an easy choice but I am positive with my decision. I never ruled out Teaching, but sometimes its good to look outside the obvious box other than teaching, it maybe hard but not impossible. I am continuing learning Polish so Im getting there. Like I said, i'll take a shot with Teaching but I can still look whilst.
