Do you want to mix business with pleasure in Dubai? With a new one-year virtual working programme, you can live and work by the beach – and enjoy daily sunshine in one of the most dynamic cities in the world.
The new programme gives you the freedom to come to Dubai, bring your family, work remotely all while remaining employed in your home country.
Why work remotely in Dubai?
