Azizi Developments marks unprecedented workforce growth with over 1,600 new hires in just four months

 Azizi Developments, a leading private developer in the UAE, announced its recent talent acquisition efforts, resulting in a significant surge in the quantity and quality of its workforce, effectively reinforcing its ambitious growth strategy and commitment to operational excellence. The developer has grown from a modest team of merely seven employees in 2007 to an impressive 35,978 professionals and construction workers by April of 2025, reflecting its rapid rise as the leading private developer in the region’s booming real estate sector.  
In the past four months alone, Azizi has welcomed 1,620 new professional staff members, marking a milestone that underscores its remarkable momentum and notable role in spurring job creation in the UAE’s property market.  The talent pool has steadily increased—from just 120 personnel in 2017 to 350 in 2019, reaching 3,600 by 2022, and now nearly 36,000, approximately 6,000 of which are white collar professionals. The developer intends to bring on an additional 7,000 employees by the end of the year.
Mr. Mirwais Azizi, Founder and Chairman of Azizi Developments, said: “We take great pride in the progress we’ve made over the past decade. Our team is the cornerstone of our success, driving innovation, quality, and a customer-first approach. This expansion reflects our sustained and growing project pipeline and the scaling of our operations to meet the rising demand from both local and international clients.”
Azizi’s dynamic roster now spans 99 nationalities. The company is also focusing on recruiting more talent with experience in European markets and beyond to strengthen its presence across further continents that it plans to develop iconic projects and expand its hospitality portfolio to. 
In line with the UAE’s Emiratisation goals, Azizi has also significantly ramped up its efforts to hire Emirati talent, with a growing number of nationals now part of its expanding workforce across various departments.
This impressive growth of Azizi’s diverse workforce highlights its dedication to inclusivity, cross-cultural collaboration, and leadership in the global market.
