My Filipino wife will follow me to KSA in January.

She will want to work but is there any options for her?

She can work (predominantly) in the nursing and schooling sectors. But will have to change her sponsorship to her employer.

That wouldn't be a problem.

She just isn't the type of women to stay at home, would bore here. She would surely need the right qualification's to work in those jobs though?

Yes, obviously. Being the only two major sectors for expat women jobs in KSA, the competition has grown tough.

So this is where the issue is. She is not qualified in this sectors.

Her expertise is airports. I'm sure we can get her something to get her by and not get too bored.
