The presence of Bupa Arabia at the 5th annual College of Business Administration (CBA) Career Fair “Competencies in the Market” attracted the attention of young female Saudis CBA students seeking employment with the Kingdom’s leading health insurer.
“Our participation in CBA’s Career Fair provided an ideal opportunity for career-minded young Saudi females to learn about the excellent prospects open to them at Bupa Arabia,” said Tal Nazer, CEO of Bupa Arabia. “And I must add that we are highly impressed by both the quality and the qualifications of the students and graduates of the College of Business Administration.”
He went on to say ”We have an ongoing commitment to employing talented young Saudis, both male and female, and I am pleased to put on record that they now make up almost 42 percent of our total staff level.”
A pioneer of empowering women to contribute to the Kingdom’s economic development, Bupa Arabia employed its first female staff in 2001 and they now make up around a third of the company's 500 strong workforce.
While Bupa Arabia is an organization that has evolved round its clients, at the same time it has earned a well-deserved reputation as one the best employers in the Kingdom. In fact, Bupa Arabia won the Best Working Environment Award in 2007, 2008 and 2009 as well as the Best Working Environment Award for Women in 2008.
