Job board: American government contractor tops hiring

From the newsletter

US-based government and commercial services contractor Amentum is driving circular economy recruitment across Africa this month, accounting for 16 of the 43 advertised roles. Operating across defence, intelligence, energy and environmental markets, the firm is recruiting waste management specialists in Kenya, Mauritius and Seychelles.  

• The company is hiring for what it describes as a 'unique' US Navy programme on Diego Garcia, a remote British territory in the Indian Ocean. Home to a major military facility supporting joint UK-US operations, the island is highly valued by Washington, which has described it as 'an all but indispensable platform' for US interests across the Middle East, South Asia and East Africa. 

• By region, East Africa dominates recruitment activity with 21 vacancies, followed by southern Africa with 14. At country level, South Africa records the highest number of advertised roles at 14.
