My understanding is they are trying to fill positions for a US military contract in Iraq where they employ 800 FFs. It does mention Baghdad in the advert but sweetens the job by mentioning The Kennedy Space Centre and Amsterdam

Could we count on you in an emergency?
G4S Fire Services
London, the Home Counties & Nationwide
If you'd like to make a real difference in society - while also earning some extra money - think about joining G4S Fire Services. As a large and expanding global employer, we're preparing to launch our new fire service, and are seeking committed, enthusiastic people to join us. G4S Fire Services is part of G4S Plc, the UK's leading security solutions provider with 530,000 staff in 115 countries. Throughout the world we provide fire and rescue services to locations such as the Kennedy Space Centre, Baghdad and Amsterdam airports.
Working within a retained contract you will get advance warning of when you are needed and this could be up to 14 days notice, although the ability to respond within 24 hours will be required from some staff.
This might not happen often - but when it does, you'll be carrying out a vital emergency role within the community. While experience would be useful (particularly if you have an HGV driving qualification), we provide comprehensive initial training. All we ask is that you pass a medical and can make yourself available at short notice. And whatever your level of experience, we'll provide six days' training per year.
These roles are ideal for people who are self-employed or work flexible hours, so it minimises disruption to your work when you get called out. This callout may involve deployments of a day or two, but in exceptional circumstances could be for an extended period. On top of your £1500 yearly retainer, you'll get paid for every shift you work - we'll also cover all your work expenses and accommodation on call-outs.
If you are looking for a new challenge and some extra income then please email your CV with a covering letter explaining why you would be a great firefighter to: g4sfirefighter@uk.g4s.com
