LinkedIn in Kuwait: oil, banking and family business groups

Kuwait’s economy is built on oil, through Kuwait Petroleum Corporation and its subsidiaries, with a large banking and investment sector and influential family business groups. The Kuwait Investment Authority is one of the world’s oldest sovereign wealth funds.

LinkedIn suits firms selling to these organisations and firms hiring professionals. Content should be formal and factual, show local presence and avoid overstated claims.

Many buyers prefer Arabic for key announcements, so we prepare Arabic versions where it suits your audience.

We write posts in your leaders’ voices after a short monthly call and report which job functions and organisations engaged each month. Kuwait is also working on major development projects under its Vision 2035, known as New Kuwait, covering infrastructure, housing and diversification away from oil. Firms involved in construction, engineering, consultancy and technology can post about relevant projects they are allowed to name. Kuwait’s large private sector includes trading companies, retail groups and telecoms firms such as Zain, which also recruit through LinkedIn. Posts should show local presence and long-term commitment to the market, and should follow your approval process. Posting times follow the Kuwaiti working week, Sunday to Thursday, with tests on morning and early afternoon slots in the first month. Employer-brand content showing your Kuwaiti and expatriate team members helps with recruitment, including for roles affected by Kuwaitisation targets. Each month you see which job functions and organisations engaged. Arabic versions of key posts are reviewed by your team before publishing, and we keep a formal, respectful tone throughout. Leader posts work best when they share a clear view on a topic your buyers care about, supported by facts. Banks, oil-services firms and consultancies can post project and hiring news, and recaps from conferences in Kuwait City reach partners who could not attend.
