Two exceptional hires. One clear message. We’re building something real at Vetra, and the best people in Dubai’s real estate market are taking notice.
A Milestone Moment for Vetra
June 2026 marks a significant chapter in Vetra’s story. This month, we are proud to announce the arrival of two standout professionals who are joining our team not from start-ups or new entrants, but from some of Dubai’s most established and respected real estate brokerages.
When experienced brokers choose to leave well-known brands and plant their flag with a growing independent firm, it is not a coincidence. It is a statement of confidence in the leadership, in the vision, and in the direction a company is heading. At Vetra, we do not take that lightly.
This update is about more than two new names on our team roster. It is a signal of the momentum we have built and the standard we are committed to maintaining as we scale.
Nikki Shoria — Head of Retail
Bringing Leadership to a Critical Division

We are delighted to welcome Nikki Shoria to Vetra in the role of Head of Retail. Nikki arrives with a strong professional background built within Dubai’s competitive real estate landscape, having honed her expertise at some of the city’s most established brokerages.
In stepping into this leadership role, Nikki will take ownership of Vetra’s retail division — overseeing strategy, operations, and team performance across our retail portfolio. Her appointment reflects our commitment to placing proven leaders at the helm of every key function within our business.
Nikki’s decision to join Vetra speaks for itself. She brings with her a deep understanding of the Dubai market, a well-established professional network, and a track record of results. Her approach combines commercial rigour with genuine client-first thinking — values that sit at the very core of what Vetra stands for.
We are confident that under her leadership, Vetra’s retail offering will reach new heights.
Shivani Symonds — Associate
Talent, Drive, and a Winning Mentality

Joining alongside Nikki is Shivani Symonds, who takes on the position of Associate at Vetra. Like Nikki, Shivani comes with direct experience from established real estate brokerages across Dubai, bringing with her both market knowledge and the kind of professional instinct that can only be developed through real-world performance.
What drew Shivani to Vetra was the same thing that draws any ambitious professional toward a rising brand: the opportunity to be part of something meaningful at an early stage. She joins at a time when Vetra is actively expanding, and her role as Associate will see her working closely across transactions, client relationships, and business development.
Shivani embodies the winning mentality that defines the Vetra team. She is competitive, client-focused, and brings a network and energy that will immediately add value to our growing operation.
We look forward to watching her thrive in the Vetra environment.
The Market Is Changing. The Best People Are Paying Attention.
Dubai’s real estate market in 2026 is more dynamic and competitive than ever. Record transaction volumes, a surge of international investors, and a rapidly evolving landscape have all raised the bar for what it means to operate at the top of this industry.
In this environment, talent is everything. The brokers and leaders who thrive are those who combine deep local expertise with global perspective, who build genuine client relationships rather than chasing quick commissions, and who align themselves with firms that share their values.
When people of Nikki’s and Shivani’s calibre choose Vetra over established household names, it tells a story that no marketing campaign can manufacture. It is proof that what we are building here resonates with the professionals who know this industry best.
Our growth is deliberate and measured. We are not hiring for the sake of headcount. We are adding people who elevate our team, strengthen our capabilities, and deepen the trust our clients place in us. Every hire at Vetra is a reflection of the standard we hold ourselves to.
Looking Ahead
The second half of 2026 is set to be one of the most exciting periods in Vetra’s journey. With a strengthened team, a clear strategic direction, and the right people in place, we are well-positioned to deliver exceptional outcomes for our clients and partners.
To Nikki and Shivani — welcome to the team. The next chapter starts now, and we could not be more glad to have you in it.
