Senaat, one of the largest industrial investment holding companies in the UAE, announced its participation in Tawdheef 2017. Senaat will be taking part in the event for the fifth consecutive year as the sponsor of the event this year and its industrial
partner.
Tawdheef, the UAE’s leading recruitment event, provides a platform for students and young professionals to meet with recruiters from a wide range of
industries.
The event played a key role in enabling Senaat to successfully place 467 Emiratis across the group over the past two years, a significant chunk of the 1, 247 Emiratis who had been retained during the period.
This year, representatives from Senaat’s portfolio companies, including Emirates Steel, NPCC, Ducab, Agthia, Arkan and Al Foah, will also participate in the leading recruitment event. Senaat and its portfolio firms are sponsoring Tawdheef as part of the commitment to showcase to Emirati talents the UAE’s industrial sector, often recognised as one of the fastest growing sectors of the country.
Commenting on Tawdheef’s significance in Senaat’s human capital endeavours, Mahmood Al Hameli, Senior Vice President of Business Support for Senaat, said, “Senaat’s human development programmes show our commitment to developing great employees as well as excellent citizens. Over the past two years, Senaat has retained 1,247 Emirati nationals, a demonstration of our commitment to creating opportunities for local talent to thrive, and for them to build, develop and lead the industrial sector in the UAE.
“We take a long-term approach in our recruitment efforts, and understand that our current investment in human capital programmes such as Tawdheef will create long-term benefits for our group and our country in the years to come,” he added.
Senaat has a target of employing 2,168 Emiratis across the group by 2020, which will
account for 32 percent of its workforce.
