About the employer

Working in Indonesia

Bali is Indonesia’s best-known island for international hospitality careers, with opportunities in hotels, restaurants, tourism, wellness, events, sales, finance, and guest services. Nusa Dua offers a quieter, resort-focused lifestyle, while nearby Kuta, Seminyak, Sanur, and Ubud provide more dining, entertainment, arts, and expatriate communities. Balinese Hindu traditions strongly influence daily life, ceremonies, architecture, and etiquette; respectful dress and behavior are important. Living costs vary considerably, with housing and imported goods generally more expensive in popular areas. Foreign nationals normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and an appropriate limited-stay work visa; working on a tourist visa is not permitted. Employers often assist with immigration, accommodation, health insurance, transport, or meals, but these benefits should be confirmed in writing. New arrivals should prepare for tropical weather, traffic, motorbike safety, and seasonal flooding.
