Blackwater Jobs

Blackwater jobs are largely focused on security, military and law enforcement. Many employees of Blackwater, or who have been trained through their variety of programs, find work overseas in areas where conflict is currently underway. For those interested in military or law enforcement careers, or in national security, these careers might be a perfect fit. Blackwater can also provide employment for military or law enforcement veterans.

Overseas Security and Military Positions

Blackwater USA, or Xe Services LLC as it is more properly known, does the majority of its business as a security contractor for the US State Department. Until recently, it provided a large number of contractors working with the CIA in Iraq. If you are looking for a job that will provide military and defense training, and which is likely to send you overseas to assist the Federal government, Blackwater can provide that career path.

Blackwater provides training for its employees as well as for other organizations. The training facility sees over forty thousand trainees every year, all focused on security, military and law enforcement related courses and field training. The training provided is extensive, focused and very high quality.

Training Jobs

In addition to hiring individuals to fill specific contracts with the US Defense Department and elsewhere, Blackwater also maintains a highly skilled and extensive training staff at their main offices in North Carolina. The majority of the trainees are military or law enforcement personnel. Veterans of the military or of law enforcement careers are needed to make up the staff of training personnel, as they already have much of the training and skills necessary to fill these positions.

Training exercises at Blackwater are not for the timid. Those wishing to train or be trained at this facility should be prepared for intense situations including offensive and defensive tactical maneuvers and terrain-specific situations. Blackwater jobs can also include on-site training with programs specially developed for a certain corporation or institution's needs. Trainers can expect to see a wide variety of students, and might also be called upon to develop courses and deliver them on-site.
