Kicking us off at 10, the St Helena Government is looking for a project manager
So, do you know much about St Helena? Nope, me neither. It's a rather fascinating place though, I've since discovered. An overseas territory of the UK, it's a mere 47 square miles in the southern Atlantic, found roughly 1,700 miles away from Cape Town. Your task, when you get there, will be lead a team which is working with others to deliver an airport to the island. The person picked for this role will work as the key link between the St Helena government and the airport project, with duties including keeping the public up-to-date with progress and drawing up a strategy for provision of commercial freight services. It sounds like a good opportunity to get involved in something which have a huge impact on life on St Helena, as apparently it is hoped visitors will jump from around 1,000 to up to 30,000 per year once the airport is up and running.
