A recruitment event taking place in Manchester is hoping to find the next wave of ‘aspiring millionaires’ to move to Dubai.
Allsopp & Allsopp is the highest-awarded independent real estate company in Dubai, and now they’re looking to add to their team of self-made millionaires.
It’s a chance to join 750,000 other expats in the glamorous city, which offers year-round sunshine and six-figure salaries.
The Dubai-based real estate group is bringing its recruitment events back to four cities across the UK, including right here in Manchester.
Allsopp & Allsopp will be at The Edwardian Manchester for two nights, on 6 and 7 September, hoping to ‘identify and welcome the next wave of aspiring millionaires’.
Since the business was established almost 15 years ago by Lewis Allsopp (CEO) and Carl Allsopp (COO), they’ve seen agents’ careers flourish.
At last year’s Birmingham recruitment event, the team took on Blake Runciman, commercial property consultant. He had been selling photocopiers and printers in Norwich, but now he’s living the Dubai Dream and on his way to the six-figure mark.
Similarly, Travis Duncan attended the recruitment event in 2022 with zero real estate experience – he’s already concluded a sale of over AED 17 million (equivalent to £3.6 million).
Some of Allsopp & Allsopp’s most established agents are self-made millionaires, like Charlie King, who previously was a plumber; and Lee Weston, who previously worked in customer service for Aldi but now works in key communities such as Downtown Dubai, La Mer and Mohammed bin Rashid City, and sits on the millionaire-row at the office.

The latest H1 report shared by the real estate group showcases how the Dubai real estate market continues its upward transaction, showing no signs of slowing down. For its over 500 team members, market demand and platform growth have secured unparalleled success.
Lewis Allsopp, CEO of Allsopp & Allsopp Group, said: “Dubai’s real estate stands resilient, consistently promising significant returns for every investor.
“The demand for the real estate market in Dubai is compared to none and as the population continues to surge the supply-demand game continues to favour real estate agents who are given the correct platform and support.
“Allsopp & Allsopp is this platform, one where growth is seen from every corner of the business.”
Allsopp & Allsopp’s next life-changing recruitment event will take place at The Edwardian Manchester between 5pm and 8pm on 6 and 7 September.

Star of hit CBBC show Operation Ouch! to host live Q&A and meet and greets in Manchester this summer
Emily Sergeant
Little Mancs can meet the star of one of their favourite TV shows at the Science and Industry Museum this summer.
In case you hadn’t heard, Operation Ouch! is back in Manchester again with a fresh new experience for 2025, and this time around, visitors can journey through an ear canal covered in gooey wax, squeeze past sticky snot, and delve deeper into how our brains interpret the world.
Thousands of families from across Greater Manchester and beyond have already visited the city centre museum make the most of the new exhibition, and get stuck into the wide range of immersive and interactive activities it has on offer.
But for those who haven’t been able to pay a visit yet, this summer couldn’t be a more ideal opportunity to do so.
That’s because Dr Xand Van Tulleken – who is one of the presenters of the BBC showOperation Ouch! – will be at the museum in a couple of weeks time to meet visitors as part of his myth-busting mission to answer some of the public’s deepest questions about our senses.

Dr Xand Van Tulleken will be at the Science and Industry Museum for one day only, and will not only join mini medics on their voyage through the senses, but will also be on-hand to answer brain teasers from the audience during a series of live Q&As.
Whether it’s banging on a super-sized eardrum, venturing into a massive eyeball, or even taking a whiff of a ‘smell library’, this world-premiere exhibition dives into the science behind hearing, sight, touch, taste, and smell – and Dr Xand will be there every step of the way.
Dr Xand’s visit comes amid a senses-themed summer programme at the city centre museum, where visitors can enjoy everything from silent discos and science shows, to a ‘bogie lab’, brain-boggling challenges, and loads more during six weeks of activities inspired by its latest exhibition.
Book your tickets to visit Operation Ouch! Brains, Bogies and You on Tuesday 12 August, for any of the time slots between 11:30am – 1pm, and 2:45 – 4:15pm for the opportunity to grab a selfie with Dr Xand from inside the exhibition.
Tickets will cost visitors £10 each, with those under three going free, and a range of family discounts available.

Aspiring artists can get their work displayed on one of the biggest digital screens in Manchester
Danny Jones
Are you a budding artist looking to get your work seen or know some who is? Well, you might want to pay attention because there’s an opportunity to have your creation seen by countless passers-by and on one of the biggest displays in the entire UK over at the Printworks.
If you’ve passed through the much-loved hospitality and leisure complex over the past year or so, you’ll have noticed their roof is now no longer a roof at all, really; the striking ceiling is now a constantly moving image and the largest of its kind in all of Europe.
Meaning that anyone who got their artworks on there would effectively be securing one of the biggest displays and public installations on the continent.
As Printworks themselves put it: “This isn’t just a screen; it’s an artistic stage viewed by millions of visitors every year, with the power to turn a single artwork into a 360-degree sensory experience.”
With that in mind, they’re giving one lucky individual the chance to grab the spotlight and see their creative expression plastered on the 1,000m² wraparound LED canvas.
“Supporting emerging talent and seeing fresh, creative perspectives is always inspiring, and I can’t wait to see what these young artists bring to the table! It was so surreal seeing my artwork on the digital.”
Past installations have included the ‘Spaces Up-Above’ exhibition by world-renowned light artist, Rupert Newman, as well as an International Women’s Day showcase by Heitzman herself, as a fellow Manchester-based creative.
In case you need a better idea of the sheer scale of this screen and why this is such an exciting opportunity for up-and-coming local artists, here’s how they celebrated Oasis returning to Manchester for their Heaton Park reunion gigs this week:
Synchronised with sound and added motion effects, the competition is now open to students who are currently enrolled in college, university or art school.
Better still, you don’t even have to be from or based in the area to take part – this is a nationwide competition hoping to spotlight the best talents in the UK.
All you have to do to enter this exciting competition in Manchester is simply provide Printworks your details and upload your artwork of choice HERE by Sunday, 3 August.
