What will successful applicants be doing?

The BAS have a number of different sites they work on, including the Bird Island Research Station where - you guessed it - they study Antarctic birds.

It's located on Signy Island, and is an outdoor lab only used in the summer.

Eloise Saville is a carpenter at Halley VI Research Station on the Brunt Ice Shelf.

"This job is unlike anything I've ever done before," she says.

"I scrape ice off wood, drive skidoos and build things in one of the most extreme places on Earth, yet it's funny how quickly it all feels normal."

It's "snow" joke, there's lots of greenery in Antarctica too

At all of the BAS's sites, scientists, researchers and lots of other people working there need places to eat and sleep, as well as conduct important scientific experiments.

And that's exactly what the new builders will be putting together, a member of the team at the BAS told BBC Newsround: "At Halley the team are currently refurbishing one of the buildings, fitting new bedrooms and bathroom and making the living spaces comfier.

"At Rothera they are building a new laboratory!"

What's your dream job when you grow up?

They also need chefs, who cook for everyone living and working there.

But it's not as easy as working in a restaurant in the UK.

Olivier Hubert, who is now a Catering Manager at BAS said: "Meals are such an important part of life down South – they're the anchors to the day so the pressure is on to create interesting and nutritious meals with limited supplies."

"But it's such a privilege to cook for the team that become your family while you're there – plus the views from the kitchen are pretty epic!"

Those tempted by a big move down South might be interested to hear the salary - which starts at £29,273.

That starting salary is under the UK's average salary of £36,712, but successful applicants who live in Antarctica will have their accommodation and food paid for by BAS.
