Apply Now: Dubal seeks to hire 200 candidates

Candidates looking to work in a state-owned corporation should brush up their CVs now. Dubai Aluminium (Dubal) – the state-owned corporation that operates the world’s largest single-site smelter using pre-baked anode technology, is looking to hire 200 nationals in the country this year.

A decent number – 110 UAE Nationals – were recruited during the course of 2012, bringing the total accumulative number of new Emirati recruits hired by Dubal since 2008 to 496.

The company offers attractive remuneration packages, comprising competitive salaries with performance-linked increments and regular bonuses; health insurance; a pension plan; a travel allowance for annual leave and scholarship opportunities for employees to expand their tertiary education.

In addition, the company emphasises that it invests substantially in training and development initiatives designed to provide employees with the skills required to perform their tasks effectively while facilitating personal growth. On average, each employee underwent 5.53 man-days of training in 2012 (9.96 man-days, in the case of UAE nationals), it mentions.

The company’s long-term goal is to increase the proportional Emiratisation of the company through training, succession planning and professional development but it also attracts expatriate talent in a big way.

“Our aim, across all levels of our company, is to attract, recruit and retain the best talent available. Where appropriate, this entails employing expatriate talent with relevant qualifications, knowledge and experience. At the end of December 2011, about 35 different nationalities were represented within our 3,800-strong workforce,” reads the company website.
