Jobs that offer the highest salaries in the UAE
Senior roles are in-demand in the finance & accounting sector as every company requires professionals to maintain books of accounts and ensure proper cash flows. On the other hand, with the adaptation to digital trends (as a result of the pandemic), roles such as data analytics and cybersecurity are in demand in the technology space.
In the Human Resources department, the demand for executive as well as senior roles have increased. These roles require applicants to have relevant digital skills and experience too.
In the legal sector, roles such as Chief Legal Officers have a high demand as companies require them to build a legal framework and ensure that operations comply with legal requirements. Bilingual candidates (that speak English and Arabic) are the most desirable candidates for various roles in the UAE.
