Hi and welcome to the site
I would try posting this in the Australian forum which you can find by clicking international on the local tab. Also in the nursing forum on http://www.britishexpats.com there are a lot of nurses from the UK moving to Australia that post. There are new grad jobs that you can go for, otherwise you are required to have some exerience. Getting a job back in the UK will depend on what experience you gain and what the job situation changes to

It might be worthwhile contacting nurse recruitment at various major hospitals and agencies to see if you can be sponsored out by them.
Thread moved to the International Forum since it still requires immigration/licensure to be completed first.
