700 jobs to be created for Emiratis in capital

Highlighting the importance of the new partnership, Abdullah Al Darmaki, chief executive of the ADEC, said: "The opportunity to create over 700 vacancies for Emirati job-seekers shows just what can be achieved when organisations work together to develop the skills of the nationals."

A number of full-time opportunities are already available for both men and women, including posts of transportation and safety officers, learning resources officers and school administrators, in Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and Al Gharbia (the Western Region). All these need to be filled before the start of the new school year.

A series of road shows to promote the employment opportunities will be undertaken throughout the region and successful applicants will receive extensive on-job training.

"The candidates who send their applications to the Abu Dhabi Emiratisation Council will be invited to attend an orientation session. This will provide an opportunity to talk with experienced recruitment advisers about the positions and training opportunities that are available," said Dr Mugheer Al Khaili, general manager of the ADEC.

The positions are created for Emirati secondary school graduates and above.

Those interested in any of the positions available and are looking to develop a career in the education sector may contact the ADEC directly over the phone (02-6997777 or toll-free 80022332) or visit
