Saudi Arabia is one of the world’s fastest growing economies in the manufacturing sector, with 7.5% average growth every year. Currently, the manufacturing sector contributes roughly 10% to the nation’s GDP. Key factors in the growth of the manufacturing industry are the developed R&D facilities, government support, modern infrastructure, and business-friendly regulations.

The government of Saudi Arabia is providing huge financial and administrative backing to the manufacturing sector. These include implementation of the required infrastructure, construction of new industrial cities like Jubail and Yanbu, the establishment of SIDF (Saudi Industrial Development Fund) and other incentives which help industrialization.

Saudi Arabia is offering unrivalled job opportunities, experience, and career exposure to those seeking an overseas assignment or change of environment. Vision 2030 is a plan to reduce the Kingdom’s dependence on oil, diversify its economy and develop public sectors such as health, education, infrastructure, recreation, and tourism. Most expatriates find themselves living in expatriate compounds in Saudi Arabia. Salaries are also tax free and are higher here than in most parts of the world.
