About marketing and communications jobs

Marketing and communications jobs cover brand building, campaigns and public relations: digital marketing specialists, brand and marketing managers, content creators, graphic and UX designers, communications and PR officers, and event managers. In the UAE, these roles are found in consumer brands, retail, real estate, hospitality, technology, government and the agencies that serve them.

Dubai is the main regional base for advertising, media and digital agencies, many of them located in Dubai Media City and Dubai Design District, and much regional marketing for the Middle East is run from the city. Abu Dhabi has a strong demand for communications staff in government, culture, tourism and events, and Sharjah has a long-standing publishing and media sector. Social media and e-commerce have made performance marketing and content creation particularly sought-after skills.

Bilingual English and Arabic profiles are in high demand, especially for content, PR and government communications. Employers expect a portfolio or case studies and familiarity with analytics, advertising and design tools.
