'Warning Order' familiarization visit Head of Resourcing ETA May
an email of that title has just been sent around re. my visit to Iraq including a highly detailed itinerary which doesn't even seem to allow time for one to powder one's nose, so it looks like it's all on! Should be a really useful trip as they've planned for me to visit all of the main locations and projects which will be hugely beneficial in terms of more fully understanding the business. Still getting to grips with the various elements and sometimes still floored by simple stuff e.g. the Military lingo... got 2 sides of A4 full of TLAs to help me out..as long as the don't test me I'll be ok! We have stacks of business in Iraq another contract about to be signed which will mean a big increase in work. The local management will need to recruit significant numbers of Iraqi nationals (need to check they're prepared for that!), the London team will select the Ex-Pat roles and we need Nepalese Gurkas as mid-ranks so co-ordination with Nepal will be required. Speaking of Nepal, found some classic stuff going through the audit...the Emergency Contact form has to have an additional Next of Kin since it is normal (& legal) for men to have more than one wife!!
