Profile

Since 1976, the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) has been prudently investing funds on behalf of the Government of Abu Dhabi, with a focus on long-term value creation.

Our portfolio comprises more than two dozen asset classes and subcategories, from equities and fixed income to hedge funds, real estate, private equity and infrastructure. ADIA invests in all of the world’s major markets, in addition to having significant exposure to the developing markets that will drive global growth of the future.

Our people are as international as our investments, bringing together an array of skills and experiences to create a collaborative and stimulating workplace. ADIA combines a culturally diverse workforce, made up of more than 65 nationalities, with a global network of relationships with the world’s top investment institutions and thought leaders.

ADIA provides a dynamic work environment, where robust debate is balanced by shared values and a willingness to learn and adapt to a changing environment, and where committed people can build rewarding careers while contributing to ADIA’s continued long-term success. We place a particular emphasis on the development and training of UAE Nationals, many of whom currently, or will go on to, hold prominent roles within ADIA and in the UAE.

ADIA seeks the best global talent, across disciplines and geographies, and provides them with the resources they need to thrive and build successful careers.

Community Guidelines: ADIA reserves its right to remove content that is inappropriate, off-topic, or unprofessional.

If you receive any suspicious requests claiming to be from ADIA employees, we strongly advise you to exercise caution and refrain from sharing personal or sensitive information.
