      BAE are an SC sponsor, and a UK based company. And as they run the Eurojet fighters in Saudi, and as SC is required for a lot of the EJ work, then they can sponsor individuals to work on those roles.

      But any current (non BAE) SC will not be relevant once you move abroad so it would likely be a transfer to BAE.

        Wow, would love to work in the middle east. I have not heard of contractors getting relocation amounts, it is usually on the individual. In this case, I would get over there, find a flat/house share and enjoy the experiance.

          Enjoy the experience?

          Endure the experience and think about the money is probably more accurate...

              I have visited a couple of times and loved it. Get a fast car and enjoy the roads, food, sun and sea.
              Dubai is a 8hr drive and you can easily spend a w/e there.

                Visiting is completely different to living and working there
