Difficult to answer if we dont know what the role is for (function) and level.  On a general note yes the package is good but what is your nationality, and based on your spending habits , family structure etc this may not be the case.

Hi
   thanks for the reply the job is a train driver with saudi rail and i am australian
thanks. andrew

HRGuru

The average train driver salary across the world (US, UK , AUS) is coming between the range of SAR.18,500 - SAR. 20,500 ( 49K GBP, 54K USD , 80 AUD / yr) .  These countries also have taxation. Your total pay of 30,125 is not a lot when you look at the average pay in your country as well as others considering you will end up paying for your accommodation and other expenses here while you may save on tax.  Considering all that (pay , expenses, taxation etc ) you need to make the decision if this is a better move from AUS to KSA.

Hi
Bro could you plz help where and how to apply for railway metro jobs in saudi arabia.

Thanks

Hi there. I would say the average of 49k is out of date now. Most companies are no high 50s with many in the 60s. So 49k can’t be an average.

I would love to no what you think the salary could be for a senior on track machine operator. Working on the tampers for SAR. would be be very useful.
