**SPEARFISH IS LOOKING FOR AN EXPERIENCED UKRAINIAN-SPEAKING INSTRUCTOR TO JOIN AND LEAD THE DELIVERY OF SPEARFISH HEAT COURSES IN UKRAINE**

Spearfish have delivered Hostile Environment Awareness Training courses around the world since 2012. We currently offer heavily contextualised content across Africa and Asia, and more recently Ukraine, where we have a registered LLC. Our courses combine the experience of our qualified subject matter experts with facilitated discussion groups and immersive training exercises.

One thing that typifies our instructors is their real-world experience of providing security advice and services in the field. This real-world experience is essential to tailoring our training courses for our clients. Our courses also offer a large component of medical training alongside many other skills required to navigate a typical high-risk deployment. Our delivery style relies on strong inter-personal skills to convey principles and techniques to a wide range of nationalities, sectors and experience levels of those on our courses.
