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.

Sensory-friendly Northern Lights to illuminate Printworks’ digital ceiling to mark Neurodiversity Celebration Week
Emily Sergeant
This week marks the start of Neurodiversity Celebration Week.
Approximately 15-20% of the population has a neurological difference, according to the most recent statistics, and Neurodiversity Celebration Week (16-20 March 2026) highlighting the importance of championing, raising awareness of, and accommodating neurodiverse people.
And Printworks is marking the occasion in its own special way, with a series of new initiatives designed to create a more ‘inclusive’ and ‘sensory-friendly’ environment.
You may already know that the popular indoor entertainment complex in the heart of Manchester city centre is home to more than a dozen bars, restaurants, and leisure activities – including one of the largest IMAX screens on the continent – and Europe’s largest digital ceiling too, of course, but this week’s experience is unlike anything the venue has welcomed before.
Throughout the week, Printworks will be transforming its digital ceiling with calming Northern Lights and constellations which have been specifically designed to create a relaxed, sensory-friendly atmosphere for visitors with additional sensory needs.

As part of a long-term commitment to accessibility and inclusivity, Printworks is also introducing a weekly sensory-friendly hour every Sunday too, where lighting throughout the venue will be dimmed, and music and SFX volumes reduced for a reduced-stimulus environment.
200 free sensory packs – which can be collected at Vue cinema – with a pair of ear defenders and sensory-friendly toys, designed to support visitors who may benefit from sensory tools while enjoying the venue, are also on offer throughout the course of the week.
On top of this, there’s also a range of autism-friendly cinema screenings taking place on the last Sunday of every month at 10:30am.
An additional autism-friendly screening will be taking place with a showing of Hoppers this Sunday 22 March at 10:30am, with tickets now available from Vue’s website.
“Neurodiversity Celebration Week is an important time for brands and venues to recognise and support the diverse ways visitors and audiences experience the world,” commented Dan Davis, who is the General Manager at Printworks.
“We endeavour to ensure that all visitors feel comfortable and welcome when spending time at Printworks.”
