Dubai Holding has announced the expansion of its 'Leaders of Tomorrow Graduate Programme' internationally while reaffirming its commitment to foster talent from universities in the UAE.

Open for applications until July 1, the 12-month programme offers recent graduates access to the Group’s diverse business portfolio and a clear pathway to professional growth.

The 2024 edition commences with a series of roadshows across leading UAE and UK-based universities.

It provides graduates access to specialised training, professional one-on-one mentorship, job shadowing opportunities and real-world strategic projects across different business units within Dubai Holding’s portfolio, including real estate, asset management, entertainment, hospitality and investments.

Graduates enrolling in the programme will become integral members of a collaborative and inclusive team, allowing them to contribute to exciting initiatives and harness unrivalled networking opportunities.

Upon successful completion, candidates will have the opportunity to secure a full-time role within one of Dubai Holding’s companies, which operate across multiple sectors.

"As a socially responsible business that operates for the good of tomorrow, we believe in the importance of developing the next generation of leaders and empowering them to play an integral role within our innovative ecosystem," said Fatma Hussain, Chief People Officer, Dubai Holding.

"Whilst the international expansion of the programme reflects our unwavering commitment to nurture talent on a global scale, the programme directly supports our Emiratisation drive and commitment to cultivate skillsets and build expertise amongst UAE nationals," she added.
