Labor General Foreman needed for Africa job

[KBScobravert]

Anyone looking to get in to overseas contracting work? I don't have the exact posting yet but if you are interested I can push your resume to the hiring manager sitting right next to me.

It is a Labor General Foreman job in Agadez, Niger working for Fluor. You will be escorting locals cleaning tents, latrines, showers, picking up trash cans, etc. Basic labor work but the locals do the work, you just supervise. Anything the site manager wants to have done. We work 10 hrs a day 7 days a week.

It isn't a high paying contract job BUT it is your foot in the door. Best I can calculate puts the job around $83k after salary, paid leave, and retention bonuses.

Any resume can get you this job.

The cons: you will live in a tent, in sub sahara Africa. Food sucks. Mail every 2-3 weeks.

Might have to dodge the occasional AK bullet, and wear metal arm guards to avoid having hands chopped off.

Don't worry, they are terrible shots. And I it ain't that kind of Muslim...yet.

This actually sounds fun to me. If I did not have other responsibilities I would try my hand at it.

Position filled.

But if anyone is willing, we might have some "kitchen" jobs (dining facility workers), or MWR (morwal, welfare, recreation) jobs - basically gym attendants and maybe another 1 or 2 openings.

svo - if we eventually get a pool, you are my first call.

Does your company hire convicts? I know some really good workers who I could send your way if you do. They are not picky about what kind of work you have if it pays decent.

Yes and no. The openings that I am privy to are very fast fill. We like to pick from folks that have worked with someone that is already here so they can vouch for them. Everyone that comes on has to pass an SF85 NACI background check. Felons can pass it depending on their past 5 years. However it takes a long time for them to clear them in JPAS. Clean record people can get cleared and be eligible in a few days which is how fast our HR is hiring for openings on our projects. If it takes longer than that they are moving to the next candidate.
