New female-focused recruiter aims to add flexibility to GCC jobs market

Recruitment consultancy, Hopscotch, has launched to bring together professional women requiring flexible working options in the Gulf region and GCC companies looking for quality, shorter term hires.
The company said that with limited channels to find flexible or part time work, women’s skills and knowledge are being lost from the regional workplace.
In a recent survey of professional women in the GCC by MCG Group, 76 percent cited a lack of flexible options as their reason for not returning to work, with more than a third stating they would start tomorrow if the right opportunities were available.
The World Bank recently estimated that if women in this region participated as much as men, another 5 percent would be added to GDP.
