Truck driver required in iraq

pae.jobs/baghdad-irq/truck-driv … 1D541/job/

Doesn’t show the salary unfortunately but according to glassdoors it’s not uncommon to earn 100k+ a year.

The ad does have a disclaimer though.
“It should be understood that employment may be located in potentially dangerous areas, including combat or war zones. This might involve the possibility of suffering harm by dangerous forces or friendly fire. These dangers are inherent to working conditions in a dangerous environment”

Seems like they accept international applicants, aka British class 1 licence holders.

Anyone going to Apply?

Two mates of mine went out there about 2003ish…both worked for Stobbie believe it or not :smiley: , made a change from bog rolls to Tesco, and they both earned a fortune.
They had US Army escorts in those days, but that will no longer be an option.

Anyone considering it no need for a hi viz, but make sure you pack your orange jump suit…for those possible movie opportunities. :bulb: :smiley:

ADR for fuel deliveries .
Full load of Jet A - thanks but no thanks .

Could be worse. Could be in Basra.

Will I get home on a Friday?

If i was single and no ties i would apply for that been there before but was armed.

I worked with a guy in 2003 who’d been out there with Halliburton for a spell and jacked it in. Friggin dangerous and not much support. Back then anyway.

It is but its an experience the guys that get these jobs spend alot of there time in the green zones moving the military gear about but your just a normal person.

.

I’m guessing it’s a contract for the US government, how would being a UK citizen affect your chances?

I’d love to have a go, but I’m on stand by…

I’d rather spend 2 hours on the bunk and do RDC work thanks.
