aboutus
We’re hiring for a well-established events company in Dubai, active in the market for 15+ years. They’re now expanding and looking for three experienced Events Project Managers to join their growing team.
We need people who’ve handled events from A to Z. That means the full cycle: concept, budgeting, planning, vendor and team coordination, client communication, execution, and post-event wrap-up. If your experience covers only part of the process, this won’t be the role for you.
Important Notice – Please Read Before You Apply
We receive over 2,000+ applications for similar roles in this industry. We use an ATS (Applicant Tracking System) to handle the volume.
So here are two rules you must follow:
Rule #1: Your CV must be ATS-readable.
-
No fancy designs, no images, no text boxes. If your CV isn’t ATS-friendly, it won’t even be seen by a human. Don’t take that risk.
Rule #2: Your CV must show the full scope of project management experience in events.
-
Not just what you did, but what you achieved. We want to see results not just responsibilities.
If you’re unsure whether your CV is ATS-readable or strong enough for this role, reach out to us at hello@thrive-through-hr.com we offer this as a service and can help you get your CV ready to pass the first filter.
P.S. Just to be clear: using our CV service does not guarantee you’ll get the job. It’s simply the first and most important step to make sure your application isn’t rejected before it even gets seen.
