Real estate consultancy Cushman & Wakefield said in November it had cut staff numbers in its Dubai office as part of a restructuring that will see the international property consultancy shift its focus to Bahrain. The firm, which has operated its regional headquarters from the emirate since 2008, is understood to have made several redundancies and seen a number of resignations after it announced plans to restructure.
Cushman & Wakefield said in an emailed statement it was shifting its focus to other areas of growth in the Middle East. “Cushman & Wakefield recently restructured its Dubai office to primarily focus on servicing the needs of its corporate clients in the Middle East region,” it said.
