Wynn Resorts is ramping up recruitment for its Wynn Al Marjan Island resort in Ras Al Khaimah, advertising casino-specific positions as the company prepares for the region’s first legal casino opening in 2027.
The company expects to employ 330 staff by December 31st, 2025, according to Arabian Gulf Business Insight. In the second quarter of 2025, Wynn Al Marjan Island hired 52 new team members, increasing the total headcount to 100. These roles primarily include senior executives, management, and administrative positions.
The $5 billion resort, set to be larger than Wynn’s Las Vegas flagship venue, is currently seeking pit managers, dealers, table operations managers, nightlife planners, and loyalty and marketing executives for both domestic and international markets. These roles specifically require knowledge of casino games including blackjack dealing and poker table supervision.
Wynn is also recruiting multiple vice presidents of casino marketing to target key international regions. These roles, listed on the company’s website and advertised on LinkedIn, involve building a VIP player base across the Middle East and North Africa. Responsibilities include establishing and nurturing relationships with high-net-worth individuals, gaming agents, and regional influencers.
The executive positions also entail recruiting, training, and managing marketing teams and casino hosts based in key cities, including Dubai, Riyadh, Doha, and Cairo. Additional vice president roles focus on targeted marketing strategies across Asia (including China, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia), Europe, and the Americas.
The resort is expected to generate up to $5 billion in annual revenue, according to Wynn projections. The company has also acquired additional land in Ras Al Khaimah, signalling potential future expansion plans.
While gambling remains officially prohibited in the UAE, the federal government has established the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA) to oversee licensing and operations. The job postings cite adherence to GCGRA regulations and include duties such as reporting suspicious activity or player disputes.
