UK FE Recruitment Agency leads the way in delivering western education to male and female students in Saudi Arabia

Protocol – Excellence in FE, a leading UK further education recruitment agency is working with ‘esg’, an overseas education and training provider, to help recruit talented, ambitious and experience hungry further education professionals to work in UK ran college’s in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The initiative, which is led by a partnership between the Saudi Arabia government and the Colleges of Excellence Programme aims to connect learners to world class education and training in the Kingdom for both male and female nationals.

Protocol, is currently recruiting for a number of roles from vocational subjects through to Sciences, English Language, IT and management positions.  Many of the roles are based at the female colleges, where only female teachers are permitted to teach.

Lisa Aldred, Protocol’s Candidate Attraction Manager said: “It may seem unusual to us living here in the UK, but Saudi operates under gender segregation due its Islamic law. Often we find this can be a bit scary especially for women who have become accustomed to our western way of life to consider working in Saudi. But we have found that those who are tolerant, willing to sacrifice their way of life for a year or so and eager to try something new- have an experience of a life time teaching out there!”

She continued…

“If you’re willing to embrace the culture differences, working in Saudi offers the right candidate the opportunity to earn a tax free generous salary, fully paid and furnished accommodation, free transport to and from work, 41 days’ holiday and of course an incredible amount of job satisfaction from working with young people in a country where this is a first time opportunity!”

Working as a teacher in Saudi is subject to meeting both the government’s and the programme’s quality assurance criteria, such as the requirement of a teaching qualification, a degree and experience. Anyone interested in working in some of the world’s most beautiful cities, is urged to contact Protocol to find out more. www.protocol.co.uk
