How hard is it for an Indonesian to get a job as an auditor in UK?

Here's the underlying situation: - I am an Indonesian - I studied Accounting at local university - Currently an Auditor at big 4 with 1 years working experience - Planning to take Masters in Finance at UK (Newcastle or Manchester) Do you think I have a lot of chance getting into Big 4 Auditor Roles in UK?

Please kindly tell me your opinion and thank you in advance.
