One of the largest diversified family business groups in the Middle East, Al Ghurair is placing two of its flagship Emiratisation programmes on centre stage at Ru’ya Careers UAE 2025, the largest career fair ever to take place in the UAE.
Al Ghurair representatives will also get to meet thousands of networking, skill-building, and career-defining opportunities over the course of the three days that commence today.
The two top programmes that will be under the spotlight are the one that targets graduates and the other one that targets experienced professionals who are exclusively Emirati.
Al Ghurair is dedicated to the Emiratisation scope of activities in the UAE, and it is through its support of multiple programs that the firm enables Emirati professionals to receive career opportunities.
Through training and internship schemes and career-specific pathways, Al Ghurair contributes to the talent agenda of the country, as well as reinforcing the expansion of the company in the long run.
The two events offered at Ru’ya would provide Emirati talent with the opportunity to nurture their skills and grow their careers in the five divisions of Al Ghurair, which include Foods, Development, Mobility, Infrastructure, and Property Management.
A’adad Graduate Programme
The A’adad Graduate Programme is a structured 12-month experience designed specifically to support fresh Emirati graduates on their initial steps to employment by offering a combination of practical experience, mentoring, and custom development plans.
It also provides young Emiratis who are early-career professionals with the capabilities, confidence, and professional exposure to be in meaningful roles within the businesses of Al Ghurair.
As graduates enter the professional environment at the culmination of the programme, A’adad not only equips graduates to succeed but also cultivates the future generation of Emirati leadership, making a direct contribution to the national development process of the UAE.
Al Mustaqbal Programme
The Al Mustaqbal Programme provides Emirati professionals with an opportunity to grow their career across the Al Ghurair wide range of portfolio, when it comes to more established talent.
The programme offers experienced Nationals the means and resources to make a significant difference with an emphasis on empowerment, multi-industry exposure, and growth opportunities.
From difficult projects to industrywide roles, Al Mustaqbal embodies the Al Ghurair perspective of promoting Emirati excellence and opening career opportunities that not only empower personal growth but also the development of the country.
Senior Vice President, Special Projects & Commercial, Hamad Al Ghurair said, “At Al Ghurair, we are passionate about equipping Emiratis with skills, mentorship, and opportunities to thrive in their careers and contribute meaningfully to the nation’s progress. We believe Emirati talent will drive the UAE’s future, and we’re here to partner with them on that journey. By investing in Emirati youth, we are not only strengthening our business but also contributing to the UAE’s vision for a knowledge-based, future-ready economy.”
Al Ghurair reaffirms its commitment to empowering the youth of the present to become the leaders of industries of the future by highlighting its Emirati talent programmes at Ru’ya 2025.
These activities also strengthen the image of the company as a certified “Great Place to Work” and a Top Employer in the UAE over three years in a row.
