Aster Expects to Add Up to 2,500 Regional Healthcare Jobs a Year

Aster DM Healthcare expects its regional expansion to create between 1,300 and 2,500 jobs a year across new hospitals, clinics and pharmacies, according to group chief executive Alisha Moopen.

New hospitals are expected to account for 1,000 to 2,000 annual additions, while clinics and pharmacies could add another 300 to 500. Aster currently employs about 18,500 people in the region and says healthcare automation is unlikely to remove the need for clinical staff.

The expansion includes the planned Medcare Royal Hills Hospital and a broader UAE investment programme. These are workforce forecasts rather than open-role guarantees; candidates should confirm current positions through Aster’s official careers channels. Source: Khaleej Times.
