Working in United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates is not an island, but it offers a coastal lifestyle with beaches, resorts and easy access to islands such as Yas Island, Saadiyat Island and Palm Jumeirah. Hospitality is a major employer, particularly in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Ras Al Khaimah, with opportunities in hotels, restaurants, tourism, events and leisure. UAE culture blends Emirati traditions with a highly international population; respectful dress and behavior are expected, especially during Ramadan. Ras Al Khaimah offers a quieter, more affordable lifestyle than Dubai, with mountains, beaches and outdoor activities, while Dubai is more cosmopolitan and expensive. Employers normally sponsor work visas, residence permits and medical checks for overseas hires. Candidates should confirm accommodation, transport, insurance, annual leave and flights before accepting an offer. The climate is hot for much of the year, so air-conditioned housing and workplaces are important.
