Alkagesta recruits Russian-speaking operations staff while under international investigation for illegal Libyan oil exports

In 2024, Maltese investment firm Alkagesta, facing international investigations over alleged Libyan oil smuggling, appeared keen on hiring Russian-speaking staff.

The company even published an unusual vacancy on Maltapark for an “Operations Specialist” whose main duty was to communicate with clients in Russian. Normally, firms with Alkagesta’s profile rely on discreet recruitment channels, but this time the search was made openly and publicly — a sign of urgency or even desperation.

The job posting raised questions about the firm’s clientele and operations, particularly as investigators continue to examine its alleged role in sanction-busting oil deals.
