Hi! I think it will be better to know Russian, because as a captain you have to solve many tsaks and problems with services, customs etc at the Russian's aerodromes. For example, the custom's procedures are absolutely different at the various aerodromes. It always makes me sad. There are three airports in Moscow and there are three different procedures! Also, it's hard to find good English speaking ATC beyond the European part of Russia (Norilsk, Novy Urengoy etc), and you may get some problems with situational awareness. Of course, some of the FO's are not fluent speakers, therefore be ready to fly in silence .

As I see only PIC positions are available, so hardly they'll get the best people working for us. By the way, does any Russian airline (even aeroflot) have their OM translated into English?

Guys, don't worry, stay calm. They need EXPERIENCED Captains. They have a lot of Russian "fresh" co-pilots. Lot of them.
For now everybody need experienced captains, so Russia - is only option. But if you don't speak Russian - you will be "non-operational" there. Even in Moscow. All companies documentation is in Russian, except FCOM's and QRH's. No chance.
And finally: did you heard something about Russian Medical?
Try to google - will be really funny for us, holders of EASA Medical.

4000 E is not a salary - just one off payment ( relocation allowances or so ), plus they promise to pay your bond for current employer if any, plus many other things - LOL Medical, Uniform, etc, like any proper airline. 70 days of annual leave. There is no figures for the salary, but I believe it should be around 6000£.
All in all - very decent offer. Moscow is not a China or Middle East.

if you want fast response - just call
Don't know exactly what they want to find there, but tens of my colleagues are dying from cancer/hearth attacks/ulcer as they have to hide their problems as well as I do.
It's easy to allow foreign pilots to work here, but it's not so easy to get rid of soviet heritage.
