Thread: Employment Opportunities

BBC,
With so much time spent away from "home" you ought to put the old Series on Club plates, should buy you some extra fuel..

If one company wins it I have been asked if I will be available to bring an Aussie company in, who are a pre-select to provide the medical service support to the construction workforce (8-10,000 pers for maybe 5 yrs).

My wife did sit up and take notice when I mentioned this.

What a classic. The bloke in it, is a mate of mine, and we both kacked ourselves laughing when we spotted this...we did ask the owner if we could take a shot of it...he laughed.

If your heading to Nauru keep an out for this one.

G'day all...or ...no outro lingua...Bom dia todo.

Still the Moz in Oz...here in freezingly cold Melbourne.

It is certainly a 'misty' world that we live in. I am employed.

I could not have imagined that I'd be...back in uniform. This Major is currently a Portuguese Linguist at the Defence Force School of Languages. Developing Assessment Materials that provide the assessment basis across all the 17 different lingos that are currently being taught here. It is an interesting place to work in..very multicultural...you should see the range of food types that get put on the table at lunchtime.

But still...I have my eyes on the horizon...with the intent to take up any opportunity that can/will present itself over in Africa...or, some of the other interesting places that are underway...we shall see.

Just now had a long conversation with the Maputo Security Manager of one of the Oil & Gas companies (the WO2 who was with me there demining...so I do trust what he relates).

There has been an impasse on the development of the No1 (ENI) and No 4 (Anadarko) because of investor concern re the fact that the Mozambique government had been drafting their Petroleum Law:

Mozambique Passes Petroleum Law and Tax Break for Eni, Anadarko - Businessweek

He related with me that to date, there had been no announcement made (or knowledge within Anadarko Mozambique) re the award of the contract to construct the Palma LNG plan. So...bit by bit...then there'll be a real rush. I am still well in contact with a couple of companies for when/if things line up.


But..doing what I am currently doing...'the language thing'...also reads well on my CV. Especially for this prospect:

Australian support for training and education

I have been contacted by SkillSDMC...the Australian Minerals and O&G Industry Training Council regarding the fact that they have responsibility toward developing the National Industry Training Framework for a country called......Mozambique...we shall see.

Bit by bit...little by little...life goes on. The most important bit...enjoy it.

G'day All,

It has been a bit of time. I have been occupied, assisting with language (Pork&Cheese) instruction and assessment material development...eish...me being a novelist..and...an actor!..at our Defence Force Language School.

Then, two days ago I was asked if I was interested in a certain job, had a chat with some people in the company and now, I have a contract coming my way for signature and then, I am departing Oz next Fri...it is going to be interesting.

Something different and somewhere different.

Pork&Cheese speaking destination?

Hope it's not Sao Tome.

Angolsh could be nice.

Was starting to get a bit concerned about you BBC. Hope all works out for you and yours for the future. You certainly lead a very interesting life!

Try to keep us all informed please, if you can. We really enjoy your posts.
