New jobs

“Massive investment in infrastructure projects, the transformation of the tourism sector and the development of the private and financial sectors is creating unprecedented opportunities for businesses to invest in KSA, and opening up new jobs for Saudi nationals and expats. We look forward to applying our unrivalled expertise and deep understanding of local culture and market dynamics to help businesses large and small succeed in the kingdom.”

 

Parisima Talent is headquartered in Dubai, with an office in Abu Dhabi and a presence in 32 other markets. Its venture into KSA, part of a wider expansion plan which includes India and Egypt. 

 

Parisima Talent’s clients in KSA, where Saudi nationals make up almost 70% of the population, are increasingly reaching out for consultation on Saudi-isation and compliance. Parisima Talent is also witnessing a huge uptick in demand for recruitment, placement and contract staffing services – especially in the hospitality, tourism and retail sectors.

More than $1 trillion worth of real estate and infrastructure projects, including 315,000 hotel keys, are under development or in the pipeline in KSA. The country is aiming for 100 million visitors by the year 2030.  

 

“Saudi Arabia’s recent agreement with Boeing is set to create 200,000 jobs in the kingdom, and the cruise industry another 50,000 employment opportunities.  All this adds up to growing demand for Parisima Talent’s insight, experience and expertise, and we are confident of providing seamless support to our existing clients moving to KSA as well as new clients across the country.”-- TradeArabia News Service
