Working in Maldives
March 24, 2008 · Print This Article
I had wrote a post on jobs in Maldives last month as I was in need from candidates for my company. I got good response and in fact I could fill up all the vacancies in no time. I am writing this post to help job seekers who would like to work in Maldives. There are about 50,0000 expatriates working in the Maldives and I see individuals from more than 40 countries working here. The majority are from India, Srilanka, Philippines, Bangladesh.
There are chances of Jobs in Maldives in different industries here
Tourism and Hotel Industries
There are about 90 resorts in Maldives and 10-15 new resorts coming up soon. If you are qualified in this industry, you can surely get a job. The salaries are good if you are working for a good resort. I have heard that there are resorts where the service charges itself come to nearly US$1000 per month. I am not in a position to give the contact details of all the resorts now. I will surely post if I come across any vacancies. I would like to tell you that there is new resort coming up in May 2008, Shangri-La where the staff strength is around 650 and the salaries are excellent. You can send your resume to
Director of Human Resources, Pre-opening office, Shangri-La’s Villingili Resort and Spa
1st Floor, MTCC Building, 181 Boduthakurufaanu Magu, Male’ 20181, Republic of Maldives OR
Send your CV and scanned photograph by e-mail to: slmd.recruitment@shangri-la.com or Fax to: + 960 332 1722
Healthcare
One of the most demanding industry as there are very less skilled professionals here. I find more of foreigners working in the Healthcare Industry and jobs in this field are more available
Vacancies can be found at
Ministry of Health - There are lots of vacancies with the Health Ministry, Maldives. You can find more information at http://www.health.gov.mv/careers.asp

Indira Gandhi Memorial Hospital - IGMH is the biggest government hospital in Maldives and there are a good number of professionals working here. Usually the foreigners working here are on 1 year contract, which may or may not be renewed. They have vacancies for Nurses, Consultants, Medical officers, laboratory technicians, radiographers, etc. Usually they announce this in major news papers and they have recruiting agents who take care of their requirements. You will have to pay the prescribed fees to the agents if you are going through them. There are lots of direct recruitment going on here, so just send your resume to the HR department.

Private clinics - There are about 7-8 private clinics in Male’, where you can find vacancies for laboratory technicians, Medical officers, Radiographers, Nurses.
Teaching
There are more than 1000 foreign teachers working here in Maldives. There are lots of schools in Maldives and the number of vacancies are very high. You may have to work in some remote islands, and if you are lucky, you may get a job in Male’ , the capital of Maldives. If you are working in Male’, you can earn good by taking tutions. Majority of the teachers earn, 2-3 times the amount they get as their fixed salary. In islands, you do not get this earnings, but you will be getting island allowance, which does not really compensate the income from tutions
Construction
There are a lot of requirement in construction field as there are lots of new projects coming up and existing projects. Lots of new multi-storied buildings coming up, so the chances for job in this field are high. There are lots of construction companies in Maldives
For recruitment, most of the companies and institutions depend on Man power suppliers, but you can apply directly also. I have seen that many take the risk of coming to Maldives as a tourist, attend to different interviews, get a job, go back and enter with the work permit. If you need any information, you can freely ask me. If you would like to be updated, when I do the next post, you can subscribe to my news letter so that you get my posts by email

Recently I came to know about some vaccancies for Ayurveda doctors in Maldives with the department of medical services for their resorts. Is Ayurveda a recognised medical system there in Maldives and is there any job vaccancy for ayurveda doctors in Maldives esp. in Govt. sector?
Hoping to get a reply
Thanks
Dr Ram, There are ayurvedic doctors working here, but very less, regarding posts in Government, I am not aware of that. There are some private clinics with ayurvedic doctors, but with reference to resorts, all the resorts are managed by private companies and not by the Government and usually its MBBS doctors working in resorts. Resorts do have facility like spa but I never came across ayurvedic doctors working in Spa. But I will check this out.
iam a medical laboratory technician with 3 years experience my qualification is DMLT,BSC MLT,DIT so if there any vacency of laboratory technician please inform me

Dear Sir,
I would like to congratulate you for the good spirit you have by giving your time and care to help other people.
As much, I would like to take advantage of your kindness and ask you regarding the hotel industry jobs. I am planning to leave my home country in the middle east and come to work in a good resort in the maldives.
My question for you is regarding the basic salaries being paid, how much is the average for me to ask for..I have a 5 years experience in the Front Office-Guest Relation desk in a 5 stars boutique hotel (part of a luxurious international chain)..
The salaries I am being offered are not good, a maximum of 900$/month or less and I have heard people in my same senior positon were offered a 2000$/month salary. It’s a huge difference..what salaries should I expect from luxurious resorts in the maldives?
would you be so kind in replying to my email address?
thank you so much
have a lovely day
