Dubai Forums Dubai Classifieds Dubai Job Wanted

Hi All,

I am a 32 y.o. Australian male who is moving to Dubai to work in the advertising industry on the account services side. I have a B.Bus (Marketing and Intl Business) and just about finished my MBA. Recently I sold my share in a successful ad agency I founded to pursue something new and different. Can anyone help with some information on the health of the advertising industry in UAE and Dubai in particular? My interests lie primarily with securing a position with a multinational ad agency in an account services role (Group Account Director or Account Director). Any information of a general nature as well as specific information on salary packages, working conditions and cultural challenges would be most welcome.

My experience lies across a number of sectors - Retail, Telecommunications, Property, Government and Financial Services among others.

Cheers,

JW
