Meet your new bosses: ISIS is looking to recruit a skilled manager to run its faltering illegal oil business
ISIS is on the lookout for a skilled professional to manage its failing oil refineries and has been using black-market agents to advertise the £140,000-a-year post.
The terror group is said to have captured at least 11 oil fields in Iraq and Syria during its offensive campaign and was thought to be making around £2million-a-day from sales in June.
But a string of fatal accidents and a lack of ideological commitment from trained engineers has seen its profits slump by more than two thirds.
Up to now jihadists have run their newly-acquired business through intimidation - threatening to kill employees' families if they fail to comply.

women and infidels need not apply
Whatever happens, we have got the oil managers, and they have not.
Who is buying oil from them??
Kill all their oil workers, cut off all attempts to transport and sell oil, cut off supplies of ammunition, bomb and kill their wives running their food kitchens. The organization will disintegrate.
£140,000 salary is way too low.
That was the pay an oil refinery manager in the ME got in the 1990s.
The line of applicants may get longer after the midterm elections, with many out-of-work democrats claiming private sector successes, like mary burke.
No vacation pay, sick pay, personal days off or insurance. I remember when people picked a job for the benefits...THANKS OBAMA!
You’ll have to have you’re head on right to handle that job!
Then they could eliminate her position.

Word is that ISIS has recruited a prestigious head hunter.
Apparently it goes through oil smuggling routes that have been there for years, mainly through Turkey. So it's the same black market buyers as before ISIS. The area has always been corrupt; only change now is that it's ISIS getting the money, and perhaps the volume of the sales.
Free Head?
140,000 pounds is chickenfeed in the oil business.
I’m in if they need a spiffy website.
Sure. They don't mind if you convert fellow workers to Christianity, too.
