A Decade of Excellence: Celebrates Ten Year Milestone

The 2nd November saw the entire Robert Walters Middle East team – alongside esteemed clients and long-standing candidates – celebrate ten years of unrivalled recruitment service in the region. The event – held at the iconic venue housed by The British Embassy – saw key industry players, notable figures from business and government sectors, as well as Oliver Christian - His Majesty’s Consul General to Dubai and the Northern Emirates – attend the prestigious evening.

 The evening was brimming with excitement, optimism, and a sense of achievement, bringing together an array of esteemed guests, clients, employees, and friends.

Over the last ten years, Robert Walters Middle East has consistently set the bar high in the recruitment industry, making a significant impact on the lives of job seekers and employers alike. Our journey commenced in 2013 with the opening of our office in Dubai, and from there, we embarked on a remarkable expansion journey across the Middle East. Our wavering commitment to delivering top-tier recruitment solutions has made us a trusted partner for numerous organizations in the region.

The evening's agenda included moments of reflection on the Robert Walters journey and growth in the Middle East, including highlights on our unwavering dedication to exceptional service, forging strong client relationships, and role in fostering career growth and development in the Middle East.

Speakers, including leaders from Robert Walters, Jason Grundy - Managing Director MEA, Oliver Christian - His Majesty’s Consul General to Dubai and the Northern Emirates, Gerrit Bouckaert - CEO Robert Walters and Walters People, and Jonathan Berry - Director, shared their insights into the ever-evolving business landscape in the Middle East. They highlighted the agency's role in connecting exceptional talent with unparalleled opportunities, and how this has contributed to the region's growth and development.

Jason Grundy, Managing Director of Robert Walters Middle East & Africa – commented:

“I remember that moment on the first Day in January 2013, I walked into a windowless two desk office in Gate Village, and I started calling all of you…. Thank you for your early support...”

Looking forward, Robert Walters Middle East remains committed to growth and excellence. The company has been a guiding light in helping individuals realise their career aspirations and aiding businesses in finding top-tier talent.

With a dynamic and rapidly evolving Middle East job market, we are well-prepared to continue their mission. The 10th-year anniversary celebration at the British Embassy marked a pivotal moment for us, Robert Walters Middle East. It was a night of gratitude, inspiration, and anticipation for the future. As we continue to shape the recruitment landscape in the Middle East, our dedication to excellence and unwavering commitment to our clients and candidates promise to lead us to another decade of success and innovation. Photos
