Hello my husband and I are thinking of moving to SA, my husband is South African and I am Russian. What are the chances of me finding a job in SA?

Welcome to Expat.com, Anna :)
I suppose all depends on your qualifications and also on where in South Africa you are going to settle!
You could always check out the Jobs section in South Africa's Classifieds.

I am South African and my wife is Russian, and she found a job relatively easily. You will need to get a Spousal Permit with a work endorsement.

Hi there,

Finding a job in SA can be really hard. I had to go through a tough year, as prefrence is give to South Africans due to the fact that most compnaies by law can only allocate a certain %age of jobs to non South Africans. Even if a compnay has room in their quota they still have to strongly motivate why a South African cannot fill that particualr role.

I currently work for a company in Cape Town who are looking to recruit UK nationals, as our Clients are based in the UK and the comopany will also sort out your work permit.
If you are interested please e-mail me and I can get our recruiters to contact you and see what we have available for the experience you have.


Good Luck with the move. Cape Town is the place to be! :)
