I would also appreciate any info on Abu Dhabi, I'm Tower and Approach but not Radar. Does the package mentioned in the beginning by Dr Evil stand? Any prediction on openings?

You'll need to be rated both TWR and APP RADAR for Abu Dhabi Intl Airport.
Al Ain Ariport some 150 kms away from Abu D and Dubai is TWR and APP only. Contact Serco Middle East if interested.

OMAD ATCOs

If any of the ATCOs at Al Bateen read this, could you send me a PM please? I'm on the hunt for some info. Thanks.

Can't confirm if it's still the same but Bateen used to be just an extra validation for the AD tower/approach guys.

Your comment: "Still putting them on a forum without anyone asking is infantile".
Disagree with you there.

CuitoCuanavale is correct.
All the Gulf ANSPs keep a close eye on each other's pay packages, none more so than SERCO whose oft quoted Mantra is "to pay the going rate, no more or no less than is required to attract suitably qualified staff to their units".
Ask yourself how they would know the "going rate", duh!

As a corollary it is reasonable that people seeking employment should have access to details of the packages available.
At the last SERCO - Abu Dhabi contract renewal I published the then figures with a view to nudging the GCAA to rethink their remuneration package. It was a successful ploy.

Also, for those working in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi the UAE government publishes the equivalent of the UK civil list of Government employees pay.

Should you so wish it you can go downtown and find out the DG's emolument!

Congrats to Abu Dhabi on their raise.

Cheers

To infinity and beyond and, hopefully, back in time for a pint of Theakstons Old Peculiar.

To infinity and beyond obviously took a little longer than expected.

Rule 3
Too long, indeed.
Yep, that unpredictable improbabilty drive and the associated Bistro Mathematics.
Somewhat like the "Gruesome twosome" are undergoing with their Flow Management Programme to fit in the recent Emirates airplane order!
Now their plans definitely fit into the improbability curve.

Who Hoo!
