UK Nurses: Could Your Next Career Move Be Jeddah, Saudi Arabia?
International nursing experience, professional development and a new lifestyle on the Red Sea coast.
Have you ever considered working overseas?
Would you like to develop your professional experience in an international specialist hospital, experience a different culture and add valuable international nursing experience to your career?
Profco (Professional Connections) is currently recruiting UK Registered Nurses for nursing opportunities at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre (KFSH&RC) in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
Opportunities are available across general nursing and a number of specialist clinical areas.
Recruitment is currently underway, with the first interviews due to begin shortly.
Why Consider KFSH&RC Jeddah?
King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre is internationally recognised for specialist healthcare, clinical excellence, education, research and professional development. KFSH&RC Jeddah has achieved international healthcare accreditations, including Magnet recognition. The Jeddah campus has approximately 470 beds and provides a wide range of specialist services, including advanced cardiac care, paediatric surgery and oncology.
What Could Working at KFSH&RC Offer You?
Working in Jeddah could give you:
- The opportunity to develop your clinical skills in an international specialist hospital.
- Experience working alongside healthcare professionals from around the world.
- Valuable international nursing experience for your CV.
- Exposure to different approaches to nursing and patient care.
- Opportunities for professional and personal development.
- The experience of living and working in a completely different part of the world.
Jeddah – Life on the Red Sea
Jeddah is a vibrant, international city on Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast.
Modern city life sits alongside historic districts, waterfront areas, restaurants, cafés and an increasing range of leisure and entertainment options.
The Red Sea is one of Jeddah's greatest attractions, with warm waters, coral reefs and opportunities for diving, snorkelling and other marine activities.
This could be much more than another nursing job. It could be a year of professional development, international experience and an entirely different way of life.
Contracts are available for one year and are renewable, giving you the option of initially committing for a year and deciding later whether you would like to stay longer.
Who Are We Looking For?
We are interested in hearing from UK Registered Nurses with experience in general nursing or nursing specialties.
Two Years' Post-Registration Experience or More – Apply Now
If you have at least two years of post-registration nursing experience, you may be ready to progress with the recruitment process now.
Approaching Two Years' Experience? Contact Us Early
If you have approximately 16 months or more of post-registration experience it is still worth contacting us now.
Saudi professional registration and the international recruitment process can take several months, so there can be an advantage to starting your preparation before you reach the full two-year experience requirement.The required two years of nursing experience must be completed before travelling to Saudi Arabia and commencing employment.
You do not need to have decided that you definitely want to move to Saudi Arabia. Start by finding out whether your qualifications and clinical experience may be suitable and what opportunities could potentially be available to you.
Interviews and Recruitment
The first interviews are due to begin shortly and face-to-face recruitment interviews are also being planned for January 2027.
Depending on your circumstances, it may be possible to interview before progressing through some of the paid stages associated with Saudi professional registration.
This could allow you to receive the outcome of your hospital interview before incurring some of the later costs in the recruitment process.
Alternatively, you can begin preparing your application and registration documentation now with the aim of progressing towards the January interviews.
Have a Personal Teams Meeting With Us
We can arrange an individual Teams meeting to discuss:
- Your qualifications and clinical experience.
- Nursing positions that may be suitable for you.
- Salary and employment benefits.
- Eligibility and Saudi professional registration.
- Interview options and interview preparation.
- Recruitment timescales and potential costs.
- Working and living in Saudi Arabia.
Making an enquiry does not commit you to anything. Our aim is to give you enough information to decide whether this opportunity is right for you before you make that decision.
