New jobs created to build property in Dubai

A specialist developer of real estate in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has created 1,600 new jobs for the construction of a new property in Dubai.

Emaar Properties has generated the positions for work on the Dubai Mall entertainment centre, an extravagant new facility located in the heart of the city.

Along with several retail units, the complex will also be home to Sega Republic, a new indoor theme park, as well as a 44,000 sq ft fashion avenue.

Mohamed Alabbar, chairman of the company, says the company has previously created jobs in sectors such as hospitality, education and business.

"The unique concept of the leisure attractions and hospitality services at our malls and hotels demands that we have the right human resources for ensuring seamless operation," he explains.

Mr Alabbar adds that the current recruitment strategy comes at a critical time for the global economy and marks a commitment to deliver a quality experience for visitors.
