Jobs Available for Those Who Like It on Cool Side
The British Antarctic Survey is looking for female electricians, plumbers, carpenters, steel erectors, chefs and boat handlers to work for 6 to 18 months at its five research stations on and around the Antarctic.
“Where else can you work in an environment surrounded by penguins, seals and icebergs and climb down a crevasse during your lunch hour?” said Jill Thomson, head of building services for the research organization.
The starting salary is about $34,600 plus an Antarctic allowance. All food, accommodation and travel are paid for.
