Team Member in East Java - Indonesia
You would like to make a movie in Indonesia, an example. Your "right hand" will have to check the locations in East Java. To be able to do so, you need to arrange letters of permissions. Private, government and military institutions won't allow you to visit without a proper arranged permission. I will be happy to arrange the needed papers before you arrive in East Java. This saves you time and stress, and adds smoothens your workpace once here. I will also be more than happy to guide you through East Java, being your 'Location Manager', while also arranging your hotels, translating on the spot as still most Indonesians don't speak English and whatever more is necessary to make your work enjoyable.
I can give you many more examples, but this might give you an idea.

- Prework will be carried out neatly, on time and according to cultural standards
