About Me
- Brian Simpson
- Douglas, Isle of Man, United Kingdom
- I am Scottish, and trained as an Accountant (seems a million years ago now!) and then worked for a Scottish Development Organisation, as a Business Investment Manager,
before entering the Oil Industry, as a Business Development Manager and Recruitment Consultant, working for the Major Oil and Gas Companies around the World.
I finally started my own Oil Consultancy and Employment Agency, Alba International, providing Oil and Gas Personnel Worldwide, and have worked all over the World, Including Kuwait ( I was there during the first gulf war, putting a British Firefighting team into Kuwait) United Arab Emirates, Russia, Thailand, and opened an office in Kuala Lumpur , Malaysia ,( During this time, the Malaysian government banned all British Companies working on contracts that nearly bankrupted me - in fact I am still recovering ! )
The Glamour of International Business goes, when you are at the airport wondering whether you have enough money left, to get home!
Just Launched a Social Networking Site for the Oil and Gas Community at www.alba.net
