Imdaad eyes to groom new FM leaders at Careers UAE 2016
Imdaad, a leading provider of integrated facilities, waste and energy management solutions in the GCC, has actually revealed its involvement in the upcoming 16th edition of Careers UAE, the prominent national fair for job hunters and employers exclusively for Emiratis running from May 16 to 18, 2016 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
Imdaad will use Careers UAE as a platform for determining and developing young Emirati talents with the possible to become leaders in the centers and waste management industry. With women accounting for 18 per cent or most of unemployed Emirati youths, Imdaad will particularly focus on hiring female skills.
Jamal Abdullah Lootah, CEO, Imdaad, stated: "Imdaad believes in the value of supporting the UAE's vision of increasing the number of UAE Nationals who are efficient members of the workforce as embodied by the nationwide Emiratisation program. Our company believe in the effectiveness of job fairs such as Careers UAE in lowering the joblessness rate amongst Emirati youths and encouraging young Nationals to pursue satisfying careers while adding to national development."
Imdaad has formerly hired five young Emirati women who were ultimately positioned in strategic business units involved with operations, finance, human resources, customer relations, marketing and business development under its Elham ('Inspire') initiative. Introduced in 2014, Elham is a nationalization program by Imdaad, which looks at encouraging young Emiratis, to think about pursuing productive career courses with one of the leading facilities management suppliers in the region and end up being future market leaders. The effort remains in line with the UAE's thrust to providing Emiratis with equal opportunities in the regional workforce.
Imdaad will once again highlight Elham and the numerous employment opportunities offered with the business, including detailed training and expert advancement programs and competitive employee benefits, at Careers UAE 2016.
"Over the years, Elham has actually been instrumental for Imdaad to continue its objective and reach out to more youths through our different efforts for dealing with the present joblessness gap. Part of our obligation towards our nation and its communities is to develop National skills and mould them into future FM experts and leaders," said Lootah.
