Recently Gulf News leading daily analyzing more than 300 job titles in key industries in UAE to find out which jobs pay most in 2016 is useful to job seekers.There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing a career to pursue. A major consideration is whether or not the job offers a work-life balance. Is the nature of work flexible or manageable? Does it offer good career growth prospects? Or does it pay a lot of money?
For many professionals, particularly those who have come to the UAE for the money, it is the size of the pay cheque that matters most.
To determine which jobs make a mint all the time, Gulf News crunched the numbers by reviewing more than 300 professional titles or positions in the UAE based on two key metrics: basic wage and allowances.
The job titles considered fall into key job groups: accounting and finance, health care, human resources, information technology, retail and corporate banking, marketing, legal, office support, hospitality and services, among others.
Topping the charts are occupations that require a knack for strategic thinking, mathematics or accounting, with salaries not less than Dh50,000 a month. Those who are great leaders, expert communicators and have a knack for turning prospects into clients also show up on the list.
Here’s a closer look at the 12 highest-paying roles among key professions in the UAE:
1. Chief executive officers
Average monthly pay including allowances: Dh100,000
Salary range: Dh75,000 to Dh135,000
Salary applicable to: Bank CEOs
What CEOs do/ why they earn much:
Chief executive officers serve as leaders in organisations, so everything they do and all the decisions they make can have an impact on the company’s bottom line. “They are normally appointed to their roles by a board of directors, if they have been with the business for years, they have most likely worked their way up the ladder and had a very positive impact on the overall business growth and potentially led the business to [an initial public offering],” says Jennifer Campori, Charter house managing director.
“The argument of whether CEOs deserve high salaries has long been debated, [and] the best answer I can give is that some deserve the high salary and others are paid a high salary simply because they can command that [pay]. Overall, CEOs should be the keystone to a business, inspiring leadership and hopefully, transforming a business,” she adds.
What it takes to get the job: The qualifications would depend on the nature of an organisation, but it is ideal to have both a graduate and undergraduate degree, with a strong background in finance and leadership.

What it takes to get this job: The key to become a successful CFO is to have a passion for finance, accounting and delivering shareholder value. “You can’t be afraid of making the tough, and of course being your own man.

“At the end of the day, if customers are not buying what is presented, the brand is impacted and of course, this ultimately impacts the bottom line. As this role is key to the bottom line of the business, the salary and level of the position should also be aligned to risk and reward,” says Campori.
