Q1 2026 Newsletter

Over the past week, events in the region have naturally created a degree of uncertainty and concern for many people. Like everyone here, we are incredibly grateful for the calm leadership and stability the UAE continues to provide, and for the efforts that keep daily life, schools and businesses moving forward.

When attending careers fairs and large networking events, recruiters and employers meet a high volume of job seekers in a short space of time. These events work best when conversations are focused, relevant, and respectful of everyone’s time.

The Marketing Talent Gap: What CMOs are saying about hiring in 2025

The marketing function has never been more critical to business growth, yet never more complex to build. To better understand the current hiring landscape, we recently asked senior marketing leaders across the UAE, GCC and beyond to share their first-hand experiences in hiring and retaining top marketing talent. The responses revealed striking patterns: which roles are hardest to fill, where skills are lacking, and what CMOs believe will define the next generation of marketing teams.
