Hiring in Ethiopia

A North-East African nation rich in history, Ethiopia is famous for its coffee, its diverse natural landscape and as the place where modern humans first emerged. Today, Ethiopia is on a journey to modernisation that isn’t without its challenges.

Thanks to a turbulent succession of political parties, economics in Ethiopia aren’t transparent. Land ownership is managed tightly by the state and Ethiopia’s main exports, made up overwhelmingly by coffee, gold and zinc, see proceeds distributed unevenly.

Despite super-fast growth since 2000 (averaging over 10% between 2004 and 2014), Ethiopia has one of the lowest GDPs per capita of any nation in the world. Working practices are still underdeveloped and much work is undertaken on an informal basis.

However, Ethiopian workers have advanced skill sets in manufacturing, farming and there is a labour surplus which is attracting investment, especially from China.
