Muriya participates in the Middle East College job fair

Muriya participated in the two-day long Middle East College Career Fair and promised to float 500 job offers for Omanis during the next four years. The Career Fair, held on May 1st and 2nd at the college campus, opened the platform for students to get acquainted with Muriya and its ongoing as well as future projects. Its main focus was to create awareness among the student community about the company and its projects, with the expectation that they might one day be a part of the organization as employees.

Muriya representatives were present at the venue to highlight the career opportunities that will be made available to Omanis in the fields of hospitality, tourism, construction, IT as well as administration and management. Students from various backgrounds received first hand information about the projects.   According to Issam Al Barwani, Vice President of Human Resources, Muriya's participation in this Fair reflected its commitment to human resource development. "It demonstrated our objectives of vigorously following the Omanisation plan to meet the targets set by the Government and pledge our might for the development of human resource in the country," he said.   At its new Sifawy Boutique Hotel, Muriya is actually running 75% Omanisation and aims to reach 80% in the future.   About Muriya:   Muriya was established in 2006 when Egypt's Orascom Hotels and Development (with 70 per cent stake) and Omani government owned Omran (with 30 per cent stake) came together in a joint venture. Since then, Muriya has announced four ambitious projects across the beautiful locales of Oman. Two of the ongoing projects are integrated tourism complexes (ITCs) offering freehold properties – 'Jebel Sifah' and 'Salalah Beach'. In addition, Muriya also has extensive plans to develop a 'City walk' in Muscat and work is ongoing on the boutique hotel on 'As Sodah Island'.   Further details about the company and projects: www.muriya.om
