Working in Antarctica

Are you looking for a truly unique, challenging and rewarding work assignment?

The Bureau regularly recruits staff for expeditions to Antarctica. We offer employment as meteorologists, weather observers and technical officers - engineers to work at our three continental stations, Casey, Davis, Mawson and our subantarctic station, Macquarie Island.

Our assignments are usually of 16 months duration, with an initial 4 to 6 months preparation and training in Hobart, followed by an Antarctic expedition of approximately 12 months.

Departure is usually between November to April, depending on the location of the station you have been selected for.

The Antarctica remuneration package includes competitive salaries, additional Antarctic Allowances of up to $54,595 per annum, travel and accommodation, clothing and food.

It's cold enough for me here in Ohio but I am tired of being broke all the time. If there are any police there, they would rip off all my clothing, take my blanket and lock me in an unheated cement cage. then take away any pay due me. So i'll pass.
