Jobs: PSD Team Leaders, Iraq

Filed under: Iraq,Jobs — Tags: basrah, Iraq, Jobs, oil and gas, PSD, security contracting — Matt @ 6:03 PM

I suspect this might have something to do with oil and gas stuff in Iraq. If it is located near Basrah, there are tons of oil facilities there. Who knows, and perhaps a representative from G4S can come up and add a little more detail for the readership?

Also, it looks like this job ad is structured more towards European contractors. But that should not stop you if you are an American or other looking for work, and I still suggest sending a resume for this job if you are interested. I am not the POC or recruiter for this job, and please follow the link below if you would like to apply. Good luck. –Matt

Jobs: DOE Q Cleared Security Officers, Tennessee

Filed under: Jobs,Tennessee — Tags: 310 to Yuma, clearance jobs, Jobs, Pinkerton Government Services, Pinkertons, private security, private security contractors, Tennessee — Matt @ 3:05 PM

This is cool. The Pinkertons are one of the oldest security and investigation companies in the US. Although it certainly has not maintained it’s leading position as a PSC over the years. I mean these guys used to protect the President of the US at one point, and even acted as our original Secret Service and Intelligence agency. Not bad for a PSC?

Of course the Pinkerton Agency was also involved in a lot of controversial stuff back in the day. There is even a law on the books referring to the Pinkertons and the strike work they were involved with. Blackwater eat your heart out. lol.

And yet they survive to this day, albeit under the ownership of the Swedish mega-security company called Securitas.

Boy, if I could purchase this company from the Swedes and bring it back under US ownership, that would be awesome. If DynCorp or any of the US security company CEO’s or investors out there are reading this, please consider looking at this company. This PSC is a part of our country’s heritage and it should be US owned.

Besides, how cool would that be to see the Pinkertons rolling down the roads in Iraq or Afghanistan? It would definitely be a homage to the days when they guarded stage coaches or protected railroads in the wild west days.

Either way, if you live in Tennessee and are looking for a gig this might be your cup of tea. Especially for contractors overseas, because they are usually the ones that are most likely to have this type of clearance. Or even prior-service and government retirees. (Clearance Jobs is a great starting point if you are looking to take advantage of your clearance rating.)

I am not the point of contact or recruiter for this job, and please follow the links below in order to apply. Also, on the website at Pinkerton Jobs they make no mention of the DOE Q job. Once you talk to a recruiter, be sure to mention the specifics and indicate what exactly you are looking for. Also be sure to check out their other jobs they offer in other states, if you are not looking for something in Tennessee. Good luck. –Matt

For this gig, you need a Top Secret clearance and a degree or “experience/combined education, with professional experience and specialized training commensurate with assignment“. This would be classified as being a detail leader for an EP team from the sounds of it, and would be a good job for a guy wanting to do work CONUS.

Either way, this would be a good gig for anyone on the East coast. You would probably get a lot of travel in as well. I am not the POC or recruiter for this, and please follow the highlighted links below in order to apply. Good luck and let me know how it goes? –Matt

Jobs: Multiple Positions With AdvanFort, OCONUS

Filed under: Job Tips,Jobs,Maritime Security — Tags: advanfort, Job Tips, Jobs, Maritime Security, private naval companies, private security — Matt @ 2:21 PM

Ok, here is the deal with this one folks. After that last article I posted that mentioned AdvanFort, I thought it would be cool to put up an ad from their career section. The list of jobs do not mention armed security positions, but I am sure they either have a database they are drawing from for security contractor positions, or they are subcontracting with another company. Who knows, but I thought it would be cool to at least put it out there for folks to think about and throw a resume at.

With my last post, there was a crucial piece of information that gave me the idea to put up a job ad for this company. Here it is: “announced that for the month of March 2011, the company completed a record 108 security missions, covering 127,000 nautical miles—a 35% increase in monthly escort missions compared to February, and a new milestone for the Company.” With that kind of surge in business, this is a company to watch. Although I cannot endorse them, and definitely do your due diligence with this company before signing a contract. I am not the POC for these jobs, and follow the links or use the email below to explore any work options with this company. Good luck. –Matt

AdvanFort is committed to provide the best service for our customers. We offer exciting and challenging career opportunities for our various operations. We look for people with exceptional skills, integrity, and professionalism. We also look for motivated workers who are committed to work in our headquarters in Europe, Africa, Middle East and Asia.

Jobs: Team Leader For MPRI, Mexico

Filed under: Jobs,Mexico — Tags: Jobs, Mexico, MPRI, private military company, security contracting, team leader — Matt @ 12:34 PM

Very interesting. This is the first big advertisement I have seen for work down in Mexico, and I hope it is not the last. Although being that this is MPRI, you practically have to be a retired General to get these types of jobs. But it is a great company to work for, and they have lots of interesting projects around the world.

MPRI is also the go to company for this kind of training and assistance around the world, and I am sure their ITAR license was very particular with this one. I doubt these guys are armed, and I am sure Mexico and the company is intent on keeping these guys out of the lime light. I just hope the cartels don’t sniff them out and make them a target.

Either way, very cool and let me know if you pick up this contract or not? The assistance you provide will save lives and help the Mexican and American governments by making their counter-drug forces more effective. If you want to apply for this job, please follow the directions below and do not send me a resume or anything. I am not a recruiter or POC for this job. Good luck. –Matt
