Wanting to work somewhere with an option to move, should I tell recruiter?












0














Context
- Happily employed for the last 5yrs, love my current company
- Want to move to a new location to be closer to wife's family
- Current company has no presence in the area, pure remote position is not something that would make sense given my desired career path



Considerations
- Compensation at current company is structured such that leaving before June would be very costly
- Current lease expires at the end of Feb 2020 - desired move date is March 2020



Question
As I talk to recruiters for prospective companies (all of whom have a presence in the desired metro area) should I mention my desire to first work in my current area and then move to this new area?



Thanks
