Electrician - Engineering - Crowne Plaza® Hotel Dubai Festival City

Do you see yourself as an Electrician for Crowne Plaza® Hotel Dubai Festival City?

There’s nothing complicated about dealing with business people.

They’re just people. Doing business.

By day, international marketing superhero. By night: fluffy bath robe and a box set.

Like Liz, who’s left her laptop cable in the cab. Or Mario, who’s secretly missing his cats. The early riser, who’s first in the gym. The sales team preparing for the ‘big pitch’ over a freshly prepared lunch. At Crowne Plaza Hotels and Resorts, we embrace the new world of business and understand that Modern business travellers want a hotel (and a hotel team) that understands and supports them, helping at every turn.

The InterContinental Hotels Group® properties in Dubai Festival City consist of four hotel brands.
