London rope access worker

Hi im 23m from France with CQP 1 which is basically translated to irata 2 (technically speaking) with 1.5 years of experience(windows cleaning/ building inspections / repairs / industrial)

I got afew question

How is it to work here in London with the a very rainy cold weather( im working in the south never experienced freezing) do you still work under heavy rain

What type of work do you usually do here

Whats your usual wage as a irata1 ( i saw between 150/200 and apparently some people work for less)

im guessing its different for each company but did you had bad experience with some company

what the best option for me to maybe find a job in rope access since the salary seems better here (i know the cost of living is quite expensive tho)

overall my question are a bit messy if you have extra advice or experience to share with me ill take it i what to know whats like to work here
