Saudi Arabia started to localize 30% of the accounting jobs as of Friday, June 11, 2021.
The decision aims to provide more than 9,800 accounting job opportunities, including account manager, director of Zakat and tax department, director of financial reports department, director of auditing department, internal auditor, and cost accountant.
Saudi accountants should receive a minimum salary of SAR 6,000 and SAR 4,500 for bachelor’s and diploma holders, respectively. Saudi accountants should be authorized by the Saudi Organization for Certified Public Accountants (SOCPA), the ministry added.
In December 2020, Ahmad Al-Rajhi, Minister of Human Resources and Social Development, issued a decision to localize 30% of the accounting jobs.
