UAE summer hiring: Dubai government jobs for expats with salaries up to Dh50,000
High-paying Dubai jobs attract skilled expats as summer hiring stays active across sectors
Dubai: The UAE job market is evolving in 2025, with strong demand for skilled professionals in construction, banking, and tech, while jobseekers are increasingly focused on roles that offer growth and purpose.
As we enter H2, hiring has slowed due to corporate tax pressures and global uncertainties. While sectors like transport and logistics show promise, as reported by Gulf News, overall job openings remain limited with tough competition and stagnant salaries. AI and automation are reshaping roles, leading many companies to delay major hiring decisions until Q4 2025 after corporate tax filings clarify plans for 2026.
Summer hiring and govt jobs for expats
Contrary to myths, summer hiring continues, sometimes increasing despite interview delays. UAE government jobs remain attractive for expats due to stability and benefits, with Dubai actively recruiting qualified candidates. The official portal dubaicareers.ae lists multiple vacancies, some offering salaries up to Dh50,000 per month.
In summary, demand is steady but hiring cautious, with government roles attracting expats and Dubai promoting diverse high-paying opportunities.
