regarding time I guess it will all depend how fast can either of you find a job -also check for the married/non married issue - might be best to move over there already married (?). In our case everything moved decently fast as I had a job lined up and then it was a matter of contract negotiations, packing and taking time off in between jobs!
Good luck with everything

Hello guys

I'm off to Dubai for 2 months in search for a job vacancy.

From previous posts you guys know your stuff re salaries amounts and accomodation allowance, so i would like you to help me out on this.

I'm a financial investigator/ analyst, with 5 years experience with logistical operations and financial analysis in forensic accounting.

I'm looking to get into the banking sector with more spreadsheet based work.

My salary is £55,000 gross in the UK.

What should i be asking for in Dubai?

I'm thinking 25,000AED plus per month with housing allowance of around 100,000AED.

Am i right to think this is correct or should i ask for more.

Your comments are appreciated.

Thanks

Dear Geordie and Friends

I would also like to ask two simple questions.

Depends on how far out you want to live.
Inner Dubai, could still be about 90,000 dhs +, further out (International City) as little (? )as 40,000 + for a studio apartment
More for furnished

Dubai is safe for women, so long as you take the same precautions you would any where else in the world.
Women can work here quite comfortably.

Dear Friends

Strange question! A one bed apartment will generally contain a living area, a bedroom, a kitchen & a bathroom.
