Hey guys,

For a marketing manager with 10 years what would be a good salary? I have an offer on the table for 33,000 in Jeddah and was wondering if this would be a good package

Hi Eyadmuti,

Welcome to Expat.com

I invite you to have a look at the topics in the Cost of living in Jeddah section.
You will see that other members also asked whether their salary package is worthwhile or not, the feedback that they received might help you to get an idea on your salary proposal.

Thanks,

Priscilla

Assuming you are American with education and work experience from US market, this offer is too low to be considered.

So where exactly are you now? Back in Amrika ?

Marketing is a broad area, which side are you in, telecom? FMCG? retail? also is the company hiring you MNC? local? all that factors play into mind.

Single? Married? Mistress?

Kids?

So basically you aren't american, just a holder...

So 33k would do I guess...It's more than enough until and unless you want to live in a western compound which I don't think you would as your previous experiences are in Dubai and Jordan

What you offered, you should accept and say thanks to Allah who bless you with that. It's up to you if that package enough to full fill your need than go for it, if you think it's till not enough you can demand up to 40K that's average pay for Marketing Manager as per my experience in KSA.
