“... I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer...”
All I could suggest for this, rather aggressive, request is that you don't need to limit your options to only English speaking languages in Europe. The industry seems very international in Europe, so I believe a lot of business is done in English no matter where exactly you are, or at least they have positions for English speaking employees. But it will definitely help if you would learn more languages, such as German or French.
But seeing that you are more concerned about your personal requirements, that must be fulfilled, rather than being ready to do what's needed to be done, I am not sure whether your future employer will see the enthusiasm in you to trust you with any operations. I think for a start you should lower your expectations, be ready to work hard, and learn a new language or two.
Also your thread title and body don't seem to go hand-in-hand (for me), what exactly are you asking?
About the country, you could go to Holland, Sweden, Finland... Northern countries... where they speak English very well. For sure, in France or Italy, you will probably have to learn the language

Hi guys, I'm trying to decide between Infosys Management Consulting New York (FS vertical) and IBM Biz Ops. Taking everything into consideration, how would you choose between the two.
Details: Infosys: $120K base; $10k signing; $3K re-lo; annual performance bonus (unspecified)
IBM: $130K base; no signing; annual performance bonus (unspecified)
Thanks in advance.
