Wynn Al Marjan Island Is Hiring – Here’s How to Apply for 2,750+ Positions in 2026

Wynn Al Marjan Island Tops Out, Redefining Ras Al Khaimah’s Skyline

If you’ve been watching the Wynn Al Marjan Island tower rise over Al Marjan Island and wondering when the jobs would start flowing – the answer is now.

Wynn is targeting 2,750 hires in 2026 alone, with a workforce of 3,000 expected by December. The primary recruitment wave kicks off in September 2026, roughly six months before the resort’s spring 2027 opening. But hundreds of positions are already live on their careers portal, spanning everything from executive chefs and casino compliance managers to yacht captains and directors of floral operations.

This isn’t a typical hotel hiring round. It’s the largest single recruitment drive in RAK’s history, and the roles on offer reflect a resort unlike anything the emirate has seen before. Here’s the complete breakdown.

What Departments Are Hiring?

Wynn Al Marjan Island is recruiting across virtually every department you’d expect from a 1,530-key integrated resort – plus a few you wouldn’t. Here’s how the hiring breaks down:

Gaming & Casino Operations

This is the one that makes Wynn Al Marjan different from every other hotel hire in the UAE. As the country’s first licensed gaming resort, Wynn needs an entirely new talent pool that doesn’t yet exist locally.

Roles already listed include:

  • Director of Gaming Marketing Performance – overseeing the commercial strategy for the gaming floor
  • Four Vice Presidents of Casino Marketing – each focused on a different region: MENA, Domestic UAE, Asia & Far East, and Europe/Rest of World
  • Card Room Managers – running the poker and card game operations
  • Table Games Operations Supervisors – floor-level management of the gaming tables
  • Regulatory Gaming Compliance Manager – ensuring everything meets the GCGRA’s regulatory framework

If you have international gaming experience from Macau, Las Vegas, Singapore or London, this is where your CV goes to the top of the pile.

Food & Beverage (3,500+ Roles)

The F&B operation is enormous. Wynn is running a global search for over 3,500 food and beverage team members to staff its 22 restaurants, bars and lounges.

Current listings include:

  • Executive Sous Chefs – for the Lebanese, Greek, Italian and Indo-Persian restaurants
  • General Managers – for the Beach Club, Alain Ducasse Steakhouse, Delilah supper club and other venues
  • Specialist culinary roles – masters of chocolate, pastry, dim sum, Chinese barbecue, Arabic sweets, cake artistry and butchery
  • Mixologists and bar staff – for the Aft Cocktail Deck, pool bars and lobby bar

The September 2026 recruitment wave will add hundreds more line-level positions: servers, bartenders, hosts and kitchen staff.

  • Director of Floral Operations – because at Wynn, flowers are serious business

  • Supervisor of Staff Accommodation Dining – feeding 7,000 staff at Wynn Oasis

What You Get – Employee Benefits and Perks

This is where Wynn’s offer gets genuinely unusual for the UAE hospitality market.

Resort-Quality Staff Accommodation

Forget the typical labour camp setup. Wynn Oasis is a purpose-built residential community spanning 105,000 square metres with capacity for over 7,000 staff across 15 residential buildings. It opens in summer 2026.

Every apartment includes smart TVs, dedicated workspaces, high-speed Wi-Fi, hotel-quality linens with weekly laundry service, private bathrooms, fully fitted kitchens, cookware, dishware, personal safes and curated welcome amenities.

At the centre of Oasis is The Pearl – a shared hub with Technogym fitness studios, swimming pools, cinema, karaoke, gaming facilities and retail services. It’s designed to feel like a residential community, not staff quarters.

Wynn University

On-site training and career development through Wynn University, which includes culinary demonstration kitchens, training restaurants, a mixology laboratory, digital learning spaces and specialist training facilities. This isn’t a two-day induction – it’s a long-term career development programme.

Dining

Staff dining is managed as a proper F&B operation, not an afterthought. The role of Supervisor of Staff Accommodation Dining exists specifically to ensure the 7,000 residents at Wynn Oasis eat well.

Getting to Work

The new Wynn Bridge (opening late 2026) connects Al Marjan Island directly to the E311 and E611 highways, making the commute significantly easier for anyone living off-island. Wynn Oasis itself sits adjacent to the boulevard, so on-campus staff have a very short commute.

How to Apply

There are three main channels:

  • Official careers portal – wynnalmarjanisland.com/careers – this is the primary channel and has the most complete listings. Filter by department, seniority level and location.
  • LinkedIn – Wynn Al Marjan Island has an active LinkedIn company page with job postings. Follow them for alerts on new roles.
  • Oracle recruitment platform – careers.wynnalmarjanisland.com – the backend system where you’ll submit your actual application and track its status.

All three channels funnel into the same system, so there’s no advantage to applying on one over another. What matters is tailoring your CV to the specific role – Wynn’s recruitment team is building something from scratch and they know exactly what they need.

WOW-RAK Expert Tip: If you have international gaming industry experience, highlight it prominently. The UAE has no existing talent pool for casino operations, so Wynn is actively recruiting globally for these roles. Even adjacent experience from luxury hospitality or high-end entertainment is relevant.
