Default Real estate exec. possible move to SNG

Hi All,

I am a Britsih expat currently living in Dubai, UAE. I have travelled several times to Singapore although i have never checked out the job scene there.

Getting a bit bored with Dubai and as Singers has always been somewhere i liked visiting, i figured i'd start exploring the job possibilities.

As i work in real estate (12 years experience) can anyone recommend recruitment agencies specialising in this field or prominent brokerages please?

So hard to do everyrthing remotely but i can easily hop over for interviews etc?

Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Cheers

Dean

Hi Dean,

Well there is a few companies here that's really great actually. One such company is PropNex.

You can arrange for interviews anytime since you have been in the field for 12 years. It's really a matter of which company you want. You'll be spoilt for choice.

Regards,
Mahirah

I think ... despite your 12 years ... that Mahira is being a little optomistic with the current economic crisis ... real estate is going down the tubes quite quickly re: big money leaving the city and prices for buying / renting dropping.

Unless of course you're bringing a client list of rich UAE residents who want to buy here?

Also ... the industry is very local oriented ie. PropNex is a large company but it specialises in local deals re: Chinese community has Chinese staff / Malay community Malay staff etc.

The big expat firms like Colliers etc are already suffering ... big projects are being held off / reduced and expats in these 'service' industries are the first to go. I know of a number of expat property people who've been retrenched in the last months or so ...

I sound very negative ... but thought you should be given a bit of a reality check so you wouldn't can your job there on the chance of one here ... sorry.

There's always an exception of course!
Cheers
