Paris French

I want to live and work in Paris but dont speak much French, what advice would you give?

I'm recently out of University and I currently want to live and work in Paris, however I dont speak much French as I'm English, however I am willing to learn more. What advice would you give and do you know any organisations that may be able to help?
I'm employed here in England but my parents have a house in Southern France, I recently spent a week there and the whole experience has made me want to live there permanantly.
So what would be the best job for me to pick up French quickly and to adapt to a life in Paris?

If you're living in England you might want to look into the Alliance Francaise. They're all over the world and teach French the conversational way - not the traditional text book way. Of course there'sa huge Alliance in Paris but there are so many resources in Paris for learning the language. One is called WICE http://www.wice-paris.org/ but if you picked up a copy of FUSAC (France USA Contacts) http://www.fusac.fr/en/ there are untold numbers of individuals who teach as well as class settings.
