Contract management jobs are becoming more common as companies tighten their belts and limit the number of full time managers. It is more economical for them to employ managers on a contract basis where the manager is not an employee and not eligible for benefits. Compensation for these managers is often higher though than the industry standard. Some contract management jobs can turn into a full time jobs but that depends on the needs of the company, and in a large part on the performance of the contracted manager employed.

When searching for contract management jobs, a good resume is a must and if you are seeking a marketing jobs or management jobs in Latin America then being bilingual is almost (though not quite) a necessity. Marketing jobs in Latin America are available, but being bilingual will usually be a requirement. You should emphasize your facility in the language in your resume as well as well as your cover letter.

Contract management jobs can be of a specified duration or can be indefinite in length, this factor should be considered during your job search and you should indicate your willingness to remain in the country for the necessary length of time.



If you are not a citizen of the Latin American country you wish to be employed in, then you should get your passport in order or apply for one if you don’t have one. Marketing jobs and contract management jobs can appear that demand immediate hire and waiting on passports will lessen your chance of landing the job you desire.

Another factor to balance when seeking contract management jobs or marketing jobs outside the country you live in, is relocation costs. It should be clear before accepting the job whether you will be reimbursed for relocation expenses, will there be any cost of living assistance? Prepare for the job even as you begin your job search and even if you are a contract employee, certain companies will offer compensation for managers willing to relocate.

If you possess the management skills and are results oriented then landing contract management jobs in another country should pose no problem. Marketing jobs in Latin America will require a more thorough knowledge of the language and the marketing specialist should be committed to seeing the project through.

In conclusion, you should be willing to commit for the time required for the job or to relocate on a semi-permanent basis when searching for contract management and marketing jobs. You should emphasize your command of the language though not being bilingual will not necessarily exclude you from consideration. Have your passport ready if necessary and consider schooling if you have children. Discuss all details of the contract job before hand and be clear on what expenses will be covered by the company contracting for your services and what expenses will not be covered. If you do all this and persevere you should be successful in your job search and pleased with the outcome.
