If you're planning on buying a property in the next 12-18 months, I would suggest you simply keep your savings on deposit.
What specific question do you have or what issues are of concern to you?
While I enjoy my current job, it is not my passion. My dream job (unfortunately!) is in the public sector within the HSE. Salary scale starts at 30k and goes up to 42k + allowances. I plan to remain in my current position for another 3 years at most before changing.
I'm quite lucky to be earning such a good salary without have the high living costs of Dublin. I want to know how I can leverage this high income while I have it.
In the short/medium term, our goals are to buy a house. Our plan is to do this in the next 12-18 months (not in Dublin, so we're looking at 350k being the absolute maximum price). It doesn't have to be the "forever" home but we'd both like to get on the property ladder.
Long term, I would like a sense of financial security when I move to a lower paying job. I'm not sure if it makes sense to invest money in ETF's to achieve this and would appreciate any advice on this also.
Would it make sense to visit a financial advisor? Prices I see online are north of 1000 so I'm curious to hear of other people's experiences.

you are going to take what will probably amount to a 60% paycut (once you get around to moving) to work within the HSE,
are you 100% sure that this is your dream job, how do you know?
