Department: Emirates Loves
Description
Digital Content Manager
Emirates Loves · Dubai, UAE · Full-time · On-site
About Emirates Loves
Emirates Loves is a growing network of community platforms celebrating the friendship between the UAE and nations around the world. Alongside our social communities, we create and produce large-scale cultural events across the UAE.
Our website is where the stories behind those events live: what's coming up, what's happening now, and what just happened.
The Role
We're looking for a Digital Content Manager to own the Emirates Loves website end to end — administering and maintaining the site, and writing the news and event coverage published on it.
This is a hands-on role for someone who is equally comfortable in a CMS and in a blank document. You'll be the single point of ownership for how Emirates Loves shows up online outside of social media.
What You'll Do
• Own the day-to-day administration, upkeep, and publishing workflow of the Emirates Loves website
• Write and publish news articles, event announcements, previews, and post-event coverage
• Build and maintain event landing pages ahead of each activation, coordinating with the events and marketing teams on schedules, visuals, and registration links
• Keep the homepage and news feed current — including live updates on event days
• Source, edit, and optimise photography, video, and copy from our events and community pages
• Plan, write, and send regular newsletters and email marketing campaigns to our community, partners, and past attendees
• Maintain a content calendar aligned to the event schedule across all Emirates Loves pages
• Ensure every piece of content is accurate, on-brand, and appropriate for a UAE cultural and government-facing audience
• Handle on-page SEO, metadata, page speed, and accessibility basics
• Coordinate with designers and developers on site improvements and new sections
• Track traffic and engagement, and use those insights to shape what we publish
What We're Looking For
• 2–4 years in web content management, digital editorial, online journalism, or a similar role
• Excellent written English; professional Arabic strongly preferred — bilingual content is core to what we do
• Hands-on experience with a CMS
• A real news instinct: the ability to turn an event into a clear, accurate story quickly
• Strong organisation and the ability to work to event deadlines, including occasional evenings and weekends around event days
• Working knowledge of SEO and web analytics (Google Analytics / Search Console)
• Basic image and video editing (Canva, Adobe Creative Suite)
Nice to have: familiarity with the UAE media and cultural landscape, experience covering live events, newsletter or social-first content experience, and a portfolio of published writing.
