I am a mechanical/sheet metal aircraft engineer looking for work in the Middle East, can anyone point me in the right direction

get your coat

So what does that mean dont understand

nothing here

Wouldn't you be better looking at the aircraft manufacturers? Not sure what your role entails but I'm not sure there is a market for restoring smashed aircraft....but I could be wrong.

Try BAe Systems.
They hire for Saudi, I'll be going out to KSA with them in a couple of weeks.

Thanks for that do you have any good contact details for them

Have you any Licenses ??
Where are you wanting to work ?? silly question yes i know but if could give a few more ideas then maybe if you have a license or three and want to work say in UAE, Kuwait, Qatar any info may just help.

Hello

I have no licenses, just 20 years experience in the industry, including heavy structures, composites, fast jet and wide bodied. I am currently a mechanical/structures foreman in Canada working on the P3 aircraft carrying out third line maint and a structural life extension programme including wing replacement.

I would love to work anywhere in the middle East that would be fine for my family.

Why do you want to work here so bad?

Fair bit of helicopter maintenance around the middle east if you're into that. Decent money and usually on a rotation basis so get to go home a lot.

Its a place I have had many friends work at and they all come back with good reviews on the whole. Also I see it as a new challenge. The middle East looks a wonderful part of the world, and to have an oportunity to work there would be wonderful.

Is there still work available as I have been told that it has slowed down.

Thanks shat fink. who are the contacts for the rotary jobs

you need to get a map mate
