Job opportunities in Central Asia

• ESL Teachers in a northern city
  Our ESL Teaching team in a charming Central Asian town surrounded with lush green rice paddies and wheat fields in summer is constantly on the lookout for more ESL TEACHERS. This is an amazing opportunity to influence the future leadership of this country by teaching English to students at the university or future teachers at the Teachers Training College. Singles and couples are welcome. (M)
• Assistant/ Manager for Christian Multimedia Project
  Many people in rural Central Asia are functionally illiterate and much prefer watching TV or DVDs/ videos to reading books for either relaxation or information-gathering purposes. As a result, culturally appropriate DVD/video materials make an effective tool for evangelism and discipleship/ training.
  
  Both mission and local church leaders see the production and distribution of appropriate video/ DVD materials into local languages as a high priority. But lack of manpower is slowing this process. OM is a significant financial contributor to this ministry but doesn't currently have a team-member who is "hands on" in this project.
  
  Our multimedia project offers a unique and amazing opportunity to partner with local believers to facilitate the selection, production and distribution of media materials throughout the country, greatly improving the access of Central Asia's Muslims to the gospel.
• Associate Country Director for Relief & Development Organization
  Our organization has a rich history in sharing God’s love by alleviating poverty and developing skills among the peoples of Central Asia. We focus on rural community development - serving those unreached by development efforts or spiritual truth.
  
  Our vision is to resource and equip needy people through quality development programs, modelling compassion and integrity as they partner with us.
  
  We desire to see individuals and communities actively participate in the development of their own physical, social and economic wellbeing and then to extend compassion with integrity to others who are vulnerable.
  
  We accomplish these aims by finding local champions and participants for community health, education, disability and water/ sanitation programmes, plus micro enterprise initiatives.
  
  We urgently need an Associate Director to support our Director by ensuring effective operational management and excellence in administrative functions of our organization.
• Business Development Consultant
  Poverty in rural Central Asia forces many men to seek work in Russia for months or years at a time. Labor migrants typically work in difficult and dangerous conditions, have questionable legal status within Russia and may become victims of racially-motivated violence. While labor migration enables many rural families to survive, the long-term economic benefits are limited as labor migration drains skills, resources and creativity away from the local economy. In addition, the rates of family breakdown and HIV infection are growing rapidly as a direct result of labor migration.
  
  In Central Asia, OM partners with both local and international NGOs in a variety of small business development programs, aimed at breaking the cycle of labor migration
  
  We urgently need experienced personnel from a business background who can be involved in training, resourcing and mentoring Central Asian entrepreneurs - men and women - through the process of establishing and expanding their own businesses.
