Saudi Arabia – Creating Thousands of Jobs

Tuesday, September 21st, 2010

Saudi Arabia, the holy land of Muslims, has become an employment hub for well qualified and highly skilled professionals worldwide. Millions of foreign visitors to join the workforce in this Kingdom every year to earn hefty amounts of money and enjoy the relaxing lifestyle. Jobs in Saudi Arabia are rewarding both in terms of money and lifestyle even though it is a bit conservative.

Jobs in Middle East are the most sought after these days with the growing potential of the region’s economies to develop and expand. As the government focuses on shifting the huge dependence from oil and petroleum reserves, there is an unprecedented scope for growth in the economy of the Middle East. In order to achieve the overall development of the economy, all the sectors like tourism, finance, healthcare, education, real estate, manufacturing and others need to be developed at high and quick pace. Recognizing this, large numbers of companies have opened up who are looking outside for the right talent to work with them as Saudis are not trained well enough yet. This is why thousands of jobs in Saudi Arabia are available for foreigners benefiting both the employers and the professionals.

Middle East welcomes expat professionals with such open arms that some of its regions have higher population of migrants as compared to the locals. Since, education related sectors like institutes for professional training and higher education are not very well developed; only a petty number of locals are well trained. Nationals usually go to other countries to pursue higher education and no one usually returns to work. This is why there is such scarcity of trained workforce forcing employers to recruit candidates from outside the region. Jobs in Middle East offer great opportunity to skilled workers to get highly paid for their services and lead a comforting lifestyle among people from different walks of life. Even though migration is a common phenomenon both within and outside the country, Middle East offers one-of-a-kind experience. One gets to meet people from all kinds of countries-poor/rich or developed/developing and exchange views on various issues.

The tourism sector in Saudi Arabia is developing fast, it being ‘The Land of the Two Holy Mosques’. Visitors from all over the world and within the region come to visit the holy shrines of Mecca and Medina giving a boost to Saudi tourism. Religious tourism is also encouraged by the launch of low cost airlines that offer cheap fares on domestic routes breathing new life into the domestic travel market. The slashing down of air fares brought fierce competition to the Kingdom’s national carrier, Saudi Arabian Airlines (SAA), which was forced to engage in aggressive promotion. This indirectly brings in the role of marketing and advertising pushing up the sector and promote employment opportunities. Tourism and marketing jobs in Saudi Arabia are, therefore, available in plenty for those with proper qualification and experience.

With growth in tourism, the need to flourish hospitality industry is also being felt increasingly. Most large hotels are managed by group of international hotel management and none are owned or managed by a Saudi chain. Rotana Group from the UAE is the only actually local brand belonging to a local group, so, the development of local brands such as large hotel chains is likely to be the next trend. This, however, is not prevent global players from entering the Kingdom’s market when it is seen as very profitable affair. Apparently, hotel jobs in Saudi Arabia are on a roll inviting various hotel management professionals who are skilled enough to provide international level services.

Saudi Arabia are the Large Oil Producers in the World, it creates more additional Industrial Plant and Generation Projects for the present and future needs of the People living in the Kingdom.

Earlier this year the summary Power Supply Demand in the Kingdom increases from last year’s 20 percent to 70 percent. This demands Generation projects massively especially in Industrial fields. Most projects are in fast track construction basis, it is because the demand for power are increasing, in-line with this, skilled jobs and professional employments are increasing. Jobs available in the Kingdom are so many, it is because that Saudi citizens are less in population average to accomodate the entire land area and it is also they are mostly less in experience. Nowaday the Saudi citizens are trying to get professionally and to study in other countries to catch-up for the demand of employment in the Kingdom and to have a better career.

Presently, working in hand with the Saudi Nationals are the expatriates, which came from other Asian countries like Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Philippines and other Arab Countries. Living in the Kingdom are not so difficult in terms of financial cost of living. Taxes are zero ,food and basic commodities are less expensive than other countries, some constraints problem in the Kingdom are likely being conservative especially for ladies. Definitely being conservative will make more safe for the family and it is because of being secured with regards to family case, but we cannot make ones country perfect, in anycase there will be always some difficulties and bad cases.

Well my articles objective is to show the employment demand in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, any person in professional fields can be assured to have better career in the Kingdom, company’s usually offer good benefits and employment salary packages, but we observe that people are still not so quite convince to join in the working force of the Kingdom, the answer is because other Arab countries offer better employment package, other Arab Middle East Countries have also good salary packages but they have short employment field (contractually 2 to 5 years) and the cost of living are higher maybe because of modern civilization.

Now employment demand in Saudi Arabia for expatriates are becoming Higher than 70 percent. In the Kingdom you can see more expatriates working that belongs to different parts of the World including USA, Europe and Australian expatriates.

The companies in the Kingdom Offers Good Family benefits and bachelor package, in fact even if the average rates are less than the other Arab Countries, cost of living are much lower.
