GIG Gulf's Emiratisation Commitment

At GIG Gulf, we are deeply committed to the Emiratisation initiative, a collaboration with the UAE Government that enriches our team with the invaluable presence of local Emirati talent. Emiratisation is not just a policy for us; it's a strategic investment in the future of our company and the region. We understand Emiratis bring unique perspectives, cultural insights, and local expertise to our business. Their understanding of the regional market dynamics, cultural nuances, and business practices provides us with a competitive edge, ensuring that our services are finely tuned to meet the local market's needs.

Our investment in Emiratis' careers is rooted in our belief in their potential to drive innovation and growth within our organisation. By nurturing their professional development, we contribute to their individual success and enhance our corporate capabilities. We value Emiratis as integral members of the GIG team because they embody the spirit and ambition of the region, bringing a blend of traditional values and modern skills that are essential for the evolving landscape of the insurance industry.
