DAMAC champions the next generation of Emirati leaders at Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026

Dubai, UAE – September 28, 2026: DAMAC Properties, the largest private real estate developer in the UAE and the Middle East, will participate in Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026 (28-30 September; Dubai World Trade Centre). Committed to nurturing UAE National talent, DAMAC is looking for fresh graduates and young professionals to join across sales, projects, finance and other business functions.

Amira Sajwani, Managing Director, DAMAC Properties, said: “As our teams around the world continue to grow, we are creating meaningful career opportunities and giving young professionals the training, mentorship and experience they need to become the next generation of leaders. We are especially proud that women comprise more than half of our UAE National workforce, reflecting the exceptional contribution Emirati women make across our organisation. Through structured pathways such as NaMa and Ajyal, we are enabling UAE Nationals to contribute to DAMAC’s continued growth while building careers with purpose and passion.”

DAMAC’s UAE National workforce has more than doubled over the past three years, with Emirati women accounting for nearly 20 per cent of its total female workforce and increasing by approximately 80 per cent year-on-year.

This growth is supported by a structured career path spanning onboarding, soft-skills development, on-the-job learning, mentoring, buddy support, coaching and regular feedback. Central to this approach are NaMa, introduced in 2023 to recruit and develop UAE Nationals across the organisation, and Ajyal, which provides graduates and interns with practical experience, mentorship and exposure to diverse business functions.

Together, these programmes form part of DAMAC’s broader Emiratisation strategy, equipping UAE National professionals with the skills and experience required to progress into future leadership roles.

At Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026, visitors to the DAMAC stand will be able to explore available positions, submit their profiles digitally and engage in one-to-one discussions with the company’s HR representatives and potential hiring managers. DAMAC’s participation in Ru’ya Careers UAE 2026 reflects its continued focus on attracting, developing and empowering Emirati talent.
