Want to Run a Post Office in Antarctica?

By on February 28, 2011 in Ideas

Escape the City is a very niche job website. It was specifically designed for people that want to get off the rat race treadmill and don’t want jobs in normal places.

Escape the City advertises a spectrum of refuges, from marketing and management posts to one-off charity events. Log on now and you could apply to run a post office in Antarctica, help out at a wine company in Portugal or travel India as a Rickshaw Run manager.

Here’s more from The Guardian:

A section of case studies – the hedge fund manager now running a beach lodge in Mozambique and the ex-City worker who clears mines in Cambodia – plus regular events led by those who have already taken the plunge show what adventures lie beyond the office. And a forum lets members exchange advice, experience and opportunities.
