Italian term or phrase: operatore esterno
This seems to be a specific job title judging by the amount of job adverts on Google, but I am struggling to find a definition. The sentence it appears in follows: "Successivamente [he performed] varie mansioni di operatore esterno con un periodo in cui ha lavorato al travaso dei carri ed al riempimento delle cisterne.

is this related to the construction industry? in this case it sounds like someone that rather than working on the main construction is employed on some off-site tasks

Notes to answerer
Asker: No it's not contruction as far as I can tell - the jobs performed are those in the original sentence, which seem to take place in some sort of plant.

agree  DrSeuss: I agree with "contract worker"; the term does not seem to refer to the nature of the appointment (temporary/permanent).
