The following information is provided based on inquiries as to working with Blackwater Security Consultants (BSC). BSC is staffing one contract for low, medium, and high-risk overseas work, which is growing this year. BSC is in discussion with several commercial entities to provide services for domestic and overseas surveys and protection details.
As background to the process for being considered for work with BSC, applicants must understand a couple of critical points:
BSC does not hire you; we contract you as an independent contractor (IC). BSC will provide a 1099 at the end of the year to IC’s that documents all funds paid during the year. The IC has made provisions for all the tax issues. BSC provides overseas insurance (Defense Base Act) when working on a U.S. Government contract.
BSC initiates the process of using an IC with your resume which should include a detailed summary of applicable military, intelligence, or law enforcement experience. This is to be submitted in Microsoft Word to BSC. That is the method that provides the staff personnel with the mechanism to identify qualified personnel, recruit, vet and ascertain the viability of the candidate. Once your resume has been submitted, and the capabilities determined against existing contract requirements, you will be provided a package describing the process and paperwork required to complete in order to work as an IC for BSC.
BSC will not be responsible for cost incurred for such items as mailings, passports, physicals, or shots to support contract efforts. If you are interested in work with BSC, and have experience in this field, you will already have yourself prepared and the proper documentation certifying the information available. Additionally, no active duty personnel will be contracted for work. If you are recently retired or separated from service a copy of your DD-214 is required.
The intangible aspects of the independent contractor that BSC seeks are almost as important as the current or existing qualifications of the candidate. Due to the rotational approach to fieldwork, and individuals being teamed with other personnel, personalities must be such that everyone fosters a positive team environment, a willingness to work over the eight hours a day to team projects, and focus on presenting a unified team appearance and attitude to the customer. No slackers, ghosters, or whiners need apply. You are assessed in the field by the BSC leadership and at initial training by staff. If you do not appear to be a team player or have attitude problems, we will terminate the process. Quiet professionals are what we seek as long-term partners in this work.
Those personnel that support BSC operations and contract work, who show good basic field skills, positive team attitude, and professional appearance/demeanor/attitude are reviewed for other emerging opportunities that will include training for employment.
Our deployment model for IC’s is built around the sixty days in the field concept. This allows the IC to have greater control of their down time. After initial assessment and training as a member of the PSF, you are deployed directly from your home of record/location to the work site. If you are selected for other details or assignments, you are brought back to Blackwater Training Center for additional training before deployment on a new task.
Blackwater Security Consultants is focused on moving forward in the market with the best human resources who will receive a market-setting standard for fair pay. BSC understands it can only be as good as its resources and top-notch performers are what we seek to provide on the market. If this sounds acceptable to you and is the type of work you seek, then submit your resume today.
