Hola Fellow UAE Golfers,

With our course (Trump) being under summer maintenance, can anyone recommend anywhere to play that’s recovered, or that is in decent condition at the moment?

Small, flat digital creative agency (UK + UAE, working with clients across Europe and the Gulf) is hiring a Motion & Visual Designer with strong design sensibilities.

The role:

• Motion graphics, 3D, visual/graphic design, and some light web design work 
 
• You’ll slot into a small remote team (UK + UAE based), not a lead role, but a lot of creative ownership day to day  

• Mostly remote, with occasional in-person meet-ups in Dubai (initially these are likely to be frequent but will get less frequent as you gain more experience in our ways of working)

What we’re after:

• Strong motion portfolio, After Effects essential  

• Comfortable with 3D (Cinema 4D / Blender)  

• Figma for daily collaboration with the dev team  

• Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator and PS)  

• Some web design experience  

• 3+ years experience  

• Bonus points for an interest in AI tools, paid media exposure (in media buying as well), or iGaming/fintech client experience

The practical bits:

• Salary: AED 7000–9000/month, based on experience

• UAE residence visa provided, sponsored by the company  

• MacBook Pro provided  

• Working hours flexible but aligned with mostly with UK time zone (roughly 10–6 or 11–7 Dubai time)

• Must already be based in Dubai - no relocation packages available, no fully overseas - unless your folio is absolutely exceptional

To apply: DM me your portfolio (motion work essential) and a couple of lines on your experience. Happy to answer questions in the comments too.

I currently have a Freezone licence for my business and thus an investor visa - it’s due to expire on 1st August.

I renewed my business license with the Freezone but I want to renew my visa myself (ie for the most cost effective way possible) I want to avoid going to a typing center as well.

Provided I get my own medical can I do everything I want through the ICP app, what’s the process?

Also can I do it early, as I plan on travelling over summer?

Family seeking a 4-bedroom villa or townhouse with maid’s room to rent in Damac Hills, moving in August but we’d probably move sooner if the right place comes along at the right price.

Must NOT back onto any major roads and ideally not be near to any construction.

Prefer unfurnished as we have all of our own furniture.

We’re happy paying in ONE cheque.

Direct from owner preferred.

References available from current landlord, we’re very tidy tenants, not going to ruin and repaint your house or start nailing things into the concrete walls - ready to view properties whenever!

Please send location, rent, and photos - even just the name of the cluster is fine as I can look at photos online.

I can deal with the traffic, the threat of impending war, the inclement heat, the overnight construction noise but going to spinneys and not seeing Warburtons on the shelf is another level - I imagine it’s supply issues and it’s not discontinued or anything, right?

Looking for a photographer towards the end of May to come and shoot some photos of our golf trip. Reportage style across 4 groups. Anyone interested?
