Emirati women lead Amazon’s new talent recruits

Amazon continues investment in UAE talent "through reskilling, and upskilling its workforce, empowering them to advance their careers in one of the region’s fastest growing industries"

Amazon has described its new intake of new Emirati hires, with many of these roles filled by Emirati women, as reinforcing its commitment to diversity and inclusion while contributing to the UAE’s national Emiratisation plan.

Unveiled to coincide with Emirati Women’s Day which aims to celebrate the dreams and achievements of women in the UAE, the world’s leading online retailed said it continues to invest in UAE talent through reskilling, and upskilling its workforce.

“We are grateful to live in a country where there are so many impactful national and corporate initiatives to drive change and make sustainable long-term impact. We believe that diversity unlocks different perspectives, enabling us to innovate and serve the evolving needs of our customers,” said Ronaldo Mouchawar, vice president, Middle East and North Africa (MENA), Amazon.

“With Emirati Women’s Day also being commemorated this week, and our ongoing commitment to diversity, we are proud to see so many Emirati women take on roles within Amazon. I look forward to seeing what the future has in store as we continue to build it together.”

Noof Alsayed, Marketplace Account Manager, Middle East and North Africa, Amazon, added: “While I have always been intrigued by the variety of roles offered by Amazon, most women are not aware of the breadth of opportunities available within the company.

“I am proud to represent Emirati women in such a fast-growing sector and thank the UAE government for driving this vision to ensure growth of our talent. I can’t wait to start the next step of my career and further explore the endless prospects that Amazon offers.”

Sara Alsawalhi is employed as financial analyst for the MENA region at the company and she said she was proud to have joined a company “that strives to be Earth’s best employer by creating a safer, more diverse, and more productive work environment.”

“The UAE is making significant progress at multiple levels to empower women. I’m grateful for the flexibility and excellent working conditions the company offers and would encourage any woman who is interested in a fulfilling career with prospects for growth to explore opportunities with Amazon.”
