Burj Executives | Executive Search & Management Careers in the Middle East and UAE

Forget Reef Island… Why not take a look at another “best job in the world”?’

Filed under: Recruitment in General — theburjexecutive @ 1:06 pm

Interest In the chance to be the caretaker of a tiny tropical island in Australia has captured so much attention around the world that a rush of applications has crashed the website advertising the post.

The job, which offers a salary of $105,000 to spend six months on the Great Barrier Reef island of Hamilton, has been inundated with hundreds of thousands of prospective candidates.

Local media said technicians had to restore the website, IslandReefJob.Com, after it could not cope with the volume of traffic and crashed for several hours.

So, if you are not the lucky recipient of this particular contract, what’s a guy or gal to do?

Well, the good news is that BurjExecutives.Com has NOT crashed, and the weather in Dubai and the Middle East is a beautiful 25 degrees.

Whilst Burj Executives cannot promise you will be getting paid to swim with dolphins and lounge on a beach all day , making your next executive career move within the Gulf region could mean you spend your wages on such activities, on your doorstep, whenever you’re free.

BurjExecutives.Com matches high end candidates to executive and management positions throughout Dubai and the Middle East. Focusing on recruiting around the $100,000 salary mark, you may have to compromise from the reef Island job, but you may at least find the NEXT best job in the world!

  2. Hey Burj Executives,

    I’ve been self-employed and working in the arena of Internet Marketing since 2004. Your point (in another post) about looking for opportunities, not jobs is so crucial to everyone, all the time… but it’s especially true in an environment where everyone thinks the world is coming down around them.

    This possibly is not only the best job in the world, but one of the best opportunities in the world too, because of what it can mean for the people selected going forward.

    We just got our application approved and are SUPER excited to be a part of this!

    I wish you much success in finding the ideal candidates for the positions you are filling in Dubai, and thanks for posting about the Island Reef Job!

    BTW, it seems like there’s so much going on in Dubai. When we visit there, what would you suggest would be the top 3-5 things/places we should see?

    Warmest,
