UAE Business: DP World’s recruitment and training attract over 50 new Emiratis – Gulf Digital News

DP World has hired over 50 new Emirati staff in various business units so far this year who are set for an exciting journey, on a path laid down by their predecessors whose careers have been empowered by Emiratisation programmes.

Today, around 78% of Emiratis are in leadership positions, 20% of whom are women; proving that Emiratis can compete in a difficult job market, meeting the highest international standards.

Nabil Qayed, Director of People & General Administration, People Department, DP World UAE, said: “Our success comes from the vision and efforts of the founding fathers of the UAE and rulers of Dubai, who worked to build world-class infrastructure. The first generation of Emirati leaders in the company, paved the way for the growth of Dubai and the trade sector.”
