There are few good university jobs in the whole Gulf that don't require these long hours. In the past I would have suggested the American University in Cairo as they aren't as obsessed with this concept.
One option in the UAE might be the American University in Sharjah. They are probably the best employer in the country at the moment. (few openings as few teachers leave) If you have experience teaching academic writing - essays and research papers, they have a good writing department.
Not sure what their hours are these days, but one can usually get this info in an interview without sounding like one is looking for part-time. LOL

| I currently make 80.000 USD from my main employer and another 20.000 USD from other work. Would it be beneficial moving the the UAE salary wise? I have a PhD in case that helps. |

Your PhD would have to be in a field of study that's highly desirable. But if it's in, say, literature, don't hold your breath; there are lots of equally-qualified Emiratis and expats with extensive professional experience in the Gulf. It would come down to what you have to offer employers, and so far, that's been hard to ascertain. |
