IT Contractor Rates Saudi
Hi all - i apologise if this has been covered (searched forum and can't find relevant info) so here goes.
Looking at a 12-18 month contract in Damman, i get £500/day UK, what rate should i expect in KSA? If working in Damman is it feasible to live in Bahrain and how much should rent be for a decent 1 bed apartment with a/c? What is best option re. car? rental? how much? Thanks in advance, Jim |

hi there,
can't answer the questions directly myself except to point you in the general direction of some advice; - The Dean's wiki page... brilliant starting point -> http://britishexpats.com/wiki/The_Ul..._to_Saudi_Life - avis has a desk in saudi (i think it's www.avis.com.sa) -> all advice seems to be buy not rent, but am not sure about that... - also, accommodation seems to be really tight so I'm guessing that's going to be your first point of call after sorting out your day rate best of luck! |

Thanks in advance, Jim A mate of mine from SA was offered around $1000 per day in Saudi. Not sure how many years experience you have, but he has around 8 yrs - the role was for a Senior Business Analyst. Checkout the forum on www.sainsaudi.co.za - tailored for S Africans, but will give you a good idea about Saudi. Also visit www.expatriates.com for an indication on houses etc. All the best mate. |

Cheers mate, i've also 8 years experience so i guess i'm looking at rates similar to UK - Big advantage will be if it runs for full tax year next year :)

Most of the projects last between 9-12 months, so you'll definately score. In most cases you will be asked to stay on, or there will be opportunities at other companies.
