Company: DESERT GATE TOURISM - UAE
An organization built on professionalism, extensive experience, and guest-centricity, Desert Gate was the long-sought dream of a visionary who established the company in 2004 as a supplier of the local needs of top-level tour operators in the UAE. Today, it is a full-fledged premium DMC, serving the seven emirates of the UAE, Oman, the Maldives, and its newest destinations Qatar and Mauritius. Over the years, the company has been recognised and rewarded for its innovative approach to product design as well as providing top notch service to its guests.
With a solid financial base complemented by a well-proven, reliable top management boasting 75 years of combined experience in the travel industry, Desert Gate envisions becoming the number one luxury travel group in the Gulf region, with a plan to expand its services to other destinations that are culturally connected to its home market.
Desert Gate is part of the MTS Globe group (www.mtsglobe.com) and through that partnership has access to the best-in-class technology and cleanest XML feed in the industry. Also, as a traditional DMC, Desert Gate has all you can expect from a first-rate ground handler, such as excellent contracting, creative excursions, and superior in-resort service levels.
The Junior Accounts Specialist will provide essential support to the accounting department by performing daily accounting tasks including journal entries, bank reconciliations, and supporting the month-end closing processes. This position is ideal for candidates with foundational knowledge in accounting and finance, and proficiency in accounting software, particularly Microsoft Dynamics NAV/NVB. The role is critical to ensuring accurate financial record-keeping and smooth departmental operations.
