A Guide to Jobs Abroad in Lima
What you need to know to work in Lima
We’ve got an Inca-ling you’ll love working in Lima. With fresh seafood, a wide array of museums and galleries, a growing fashion scene, pumping surf, and a low cost of living, expats are finally catching on to what Lima has to offer.
Popular jobs in Lima. The most popular jobs in Lima for expats will be in education as English teachers. As is the case in many developing countries, English skills are in high demand as Peruvians strive to be more competitive globally. All you’ll need for opportunities in this field is a TEFL certificate and (usually) a native English tongue! Other popular sectors for expats are tourism and hospitality. Jobs abroad in Lima as reception clerks, surf instructors, and tour guides will be plentiful, especially during peak tourist season. Bonus points if you have at least intermediate Spanish under your belt, or any other foreign languages, which often come highly prized in hospitality.
Short term jobs and summer jobs vs. long term jobs in Lima. Dip your toes into Peruvian life and culture with short term and summer jobs in Lima. These will prove easier to find during tourist season, especially if you’re interested in jobs in hospitality. On the other hand, long term jobs in Lima will provide a higher earning potential, as well as an excuse to try out every ceviche restaurant in city limits.
Unpaid vs. paid jobs in Lima. English teachers can expect to receive some sort of salary or stipend, even if it’s just enough to cover food and rent; depending on your education or experience you may be able to negotiate for a bit more pay, and there may also be other perks, such as airfare reimbursement. Compensation for jobs in hospitality often come in the form of free meals and accommodation, as is the case for other “unpaid” work in Lima. Still a pretty good deal!
