I have just started correspondence with a local oil and gas service supplier in Libya for a position as a business development manager.
I have over fifteen years experience in my area of expertise and have a technical, as well as MBA qualification.
In my working career my wife and I have lived and worked mostly in Europe, with a five year stint in Nigeria.
Would like to get some inside information on Tripoli Libya, such as:
What salary range should I look at?
What is the personal taxation situation?
Accommodation/Utilities/medical/Air tickets paid by company.
No car.. Based on your driving conditions, what model car should I look at and approx cost. Second hand 1-2 years old.
Safe to drive or a local driver recommended? Cost of a driver?
What is the average monthly cost of living expenses聟Food/social life etc..? Know this is what length is a piece of string? story but if I get a few numbers that would be helpful.
Where would you suggest that we find housing? Preference is exapt/local mixed community. Office is along Suani Road Tripol
To make life livable, my wife and I likes to get out and socialize, play bridge, go to gym (wife ;-), go out to eat, me . Can we do most, or all in Tripoli without having to take out a second mortgage?
Any supermarket shopping facilities?
Any other advice?
Appreciate any help, Thanks
