Jobs in Saudi Arabia

Finding a job in Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is hiring at scale across Riyadh, Jeddah, the Eastern Province and giga-projects such as NEOM. Construction, energy, engineering, healthcare, technology, hospitality and retail are major sectors, and Saudization policies push many employers to hire locally.

Offers are published in both Arabic and English. A clear English CV is standard for most professional roles, and an Arabic version helps for local and public-sector employers.

CV tips for Saudi Arabia

• Prepare the CV in English, and in Arabic as well for roles that are posted in Arabic.
• State your nationality, current location and notice period or availability; Gulf employers often ask for them up front.
• A professional photo is more common on Gulf CVs than in Europe, but follow the instructions in each job posting.
• List professional licences and certifications that matter for the role (engineering, healthcare, safety), with issuing bodies and dates.
• Mention previous Gulf or international experience and any language skills in Arabic and English.
