Michael Jackson is going for a new job as a business consultant.

The eccentric singer is set to advise investors in Bahrain on how to set up theme parks and music academies in the country.

AAJ Holdings Ltd., owned by Bahraini businessman Ahmed Abu Bakr Janahi, has admitted it wants to hire the 47-year-old star.

A statement from the company read: "Stagnant architectural structures need content in the form of entertainment to revive them and that's where Michael Jackson will play an integral role."

The singer has been residing in the Middle East since being cleared of child sex abuse allegations last year.

In his last known visit to Dubai, in November, he was seen checking out some of the world's priciest real estate developments.

His host at the time, Emirates champion rally driver Mohammed bin Sulayem, said Jackson was considering buying property there.

Michael Jackson's publicist has also revealed he is finalising his Hurricane Katrina relief song.

Artists including Snoop Dogg, Babyface and R Kelly are among those reportedly singing on the track, 'I Have This Dream'.
