Does anyone know the going rate for a very professional and highly experienced PA in Dubai?

I have seen PA's get about 15-16k a month but that was pre-2009. It also depends on nationality and qualifications/experience.

It will depend on the company and who is hiring. You could be looking for anything from 6-12k I reckon. However I think Events Management will get you somewhere, PA is often a job wives get or Indians and Filipinos so salaries tend to vary greatly.

I think you could reach up to 25K/month with multinationals depending on experience and seniority, but it is depending on the company.

Anywhere between 15-25k per month, depending on the benefits and the nationality
