WHAT OASIS OVERLAND OFFER YOU
Deciding to work in overland travel is essentially a lifestyle choice. We will not promise you rich financial rewards, so if it's a fat salary that motivates you don't read any further. What Oasis WILL offer you is the chance of a lifetime. The chance to travel in many different countries and continents and meet different people from all over the world.
You will certainly miss the comforts of home life and have to put up with some uncomfortable beds, you will probably get ill at times and not be able to call in sick as you will have a group of 20 plus people waiting for you. But you will see amazing sights and have to face up to, and conquer many challenges most people would never encounter.
Most of our crew stay with us 4 or 5 years and are able to experience all 4 continents in which we operate.
Oasis provide comprehensive emergency medical cover whole you are abroad with us. All your essential costs, such as visa's, meals, accommodation are covered by Oasis and all our crew are backed up by our Crisis Management plans and Docleaf, should you be faced with a serious crisis on one of your trips.
The Oasis Office and workshop also has crew accommodation and if we have an overland vehicle in our UK workshop, or are building a new vehicle, we can give you some training in the UK. However, most of our training takes place 'on the road'. This means you will get as much as 10 to 12 weeks training if in Africa or about 4 weeks training if in Egypt.
Oasis crew are able to save most of what they earn each trip as their main day to day expenses are taken care of. After 1 year of employment an extra bonus system comes into place.
If you are interested and want to know more please contact Steve or Chris on 01963 363400 or email us and we will answer any questions you have.
