Post by: Dr. Amrinder Pal Singh

Dubai Airports, the operator of the world’s largest international hub, Dubai International (DXB), has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with SD (Middle East), a subsidiary of Siemens Logistics, to bolster Emiratisation efforts across its operations.

This strategic partnership is in line with the UAE’s national goal of increasing Emiratisation and underscores Dubai Airports’ commitment to achieving national Emiratisation targets through strategic private-sector partnerships.

Meshari Al Bannai, Chief People Officer of Dubai Airports, commented on the collaboration, stating: “Dubai Airports continues to prioritise Emiratisation across all operations and remains a driving force of support for the UAE government’s vision. Our partnership with SD (Middle East) ensures a cross-sector collaboration that empowers and nurtures national talent.”

Stefan Neumann, Chief Executive Officer of SD (Middle East), also expressed his support for the initiative: “We are pleased to support the goals of our valued partner Dubai Airports and contribute to the development of national professionals in the UAE. Together we are committed to a successful future in which diversity is an enrichment for all of us.”

The MoU outlines a framework for collaboration that focuses on actively recruiting Emirati talent through SD (Middle East) and placing them in diverse roles within Dubai Airports. This ensures ample opportunities for Emiratis to thrive within the organization.

This initiative is a part of Dubai Airports' comprehensive Emiratisation strategy, which includes robust programs designed to upskill and empower Emiratis. Key programs include:

• Future Faces: A 12-month program designed for UAE’s university graduates.
• Rising Stars Internship Programme: Aims to provide practical experience and development opportunities.
• Fire Services Training Programme: Targets recruiting young Emiratis to join the frontline firefighting team.

Through these initiatives, Dubai Airports is dedicated to fostering the growth and development of Emirati talent, ensuring their integration and success in various operational roles within the organization.
