The collaborative platform is accessible at the chamber website&#8217;s job portal and relays the latest jobs opportunities for Africans across the continent\u2019s energy markets.<\/p>\n<p>The platform will assist local and international companies in attracting local talent across 30 different skills set in the oil &amp; gas, power and renewable energy sectors. All energy companies operating in Africa are able to post their job offers for free, and these will be relayed on the platform and via the Chamber\u2019s communications channels after approval by the Chamber\u2019s admin and team. The jobs portal will be operated and maintained by the African Energy Chamber in order to avoid all fraud and guarantee the credibility of the offers available.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLocal content has always been the number one priority of the African Energy Chamber when advocating for an energy industry that works for Africans and builds truly sustainable business models. With this new platform, we are getting rid of a lot of entry barriers set on the job market by expensive recruitment agencies. This initiative of the Chamber is non lucrative and we encourage all African and international companies to work with us on boosting local jobs creation to support the recovery of our industry and build true sustainability,\u201d declared Nj Ayuk, Executive Chairman at the African Energy Chamber.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In order to maximize the saving of local jobs and assist in the recovery of African energy markets after the Covid-19 crisis, the African Energy Chamber \u00a0and its partners have &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/index.php\/african-energy-chamber-launches-new-energy-jobs-portal-pledges-to-boost-local-content\/\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":24,"featured_media":7550,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[7442,11],"tags":[63,6986,742,955,7772,1208,1434,1827],"class_list":["post-8530","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-countries","category-top-news","tag-africa","tag-african-energy-chamber","tag-energy","tag-gas","tag-iocs","tag-jobs-2","tag-local-content","tag-oil","entry"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Tullow-Oil.jpg?fit=713%2C476&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5JWkQ-2dA","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":8652,"url":"https:\/\/www.oilnewskenya.com\/index.php\/african-energy-chamber-and-mozambican-oil-gas-chamber-agree-to-work-on-local-content-development\/","url_meta":{"origin":8530,"position":0},"title":"African Energy Chamber and Mozambican Oil &#038; Gas Chamber Agree to Work on Local Content Development","author":"","date":"July 21, 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"The African Energy Chamber and the Mozambican Oil & Gas Chamber (CPGM) have signed a cooperation agreement to support the development of local content in Mozambique and the attraction of investments into key segments of the country\u2019s energy industry.
