Careers and CV submissions
Send a CV that reaches the right part of the group first time, with the discipline, the world and your availability visible before anyone opens the attachment.
What you will need
- A CV as a single file, named with your own name.
- The discipline you work in, in one or two words.
- The world you are applying to — the group, wine, hospitality or development.
- Where you are based, and whether you can work in Lebanon or elsewhere in the group's footprint.
- Your notice period or earliest start date.
- A portfolio file or link, if your discipline is one that shows work.
- Everything as PDF. A CV that reflows in someone else's word processor is a CV nobody can read as you laid it out.
Steps
-
Choose your discipline
Apex Holding works across architecture, engineering, design, development and hospitality, and the companies in the group hire separately within those. Name the one you belong to. "Structural engineer" places you; "creative professional" does not.
-
Choose the world
Say where you want to work: Apex Holding at group level, Greppo Winery, Arz Faraya, or Zaarour Gate. Read the page for the one you pick before you write — a CV that shows you know which world you are applying to reads differently from one that does not.
-
Prepare one CV file, named properly
Export the CV as a single document and name the file with your surname, your first name and your discipline — the shape Surname-Firstname-Discipline. A file called cv-final-v3 is unfindable in an inbox three weeks later. Export it as a PDF, so the layout you designed is the layout that is read.
-
Add a portfolio if your work is visual
Architecture, design and interiors applications should carry work, not just a description of work. Send a compact selection rather than a complete archive, and if the full portfolio is large, send a link to it instead of the file. Say which projects were yours and what you did on them.
-
Use the careers subject line
Send to info@apexhldg.com with the subject Careers — CV submission, and add your discipline and the world after it. The ready subject is on the Help Center. It is what decides which desk opens the message first.
-
Write four lines in the body
Who you are and what you do, the world you are applying to, where you are based, and when you could start. Four lines is enough. The CV carries the detail; the email exists so a person can route you without opening it.
-
Say whether you are answering a posting or applying speculatively
If you are responding to an advertised role, name it in the first line. Roles are not listed on this site, so most people writing in are writing speculatively — say so plainly and lead with the discipline you practise rather than a job title you are guessing at.
-
Send once, from an address you check
One email with everything attached. Do not send the CV, then the portfolio, then a correction — each one arrives as a separate application. Use an address you will still be reading in three months, and add a phone number under your name.
-
What happens next
Your application is read at group level and passed to the company that hires for your discipline. Keep the original thread for anything you send later, so your CV and your follow-up stay together. If your situation changes — a new project worth showing, an offer elsewhere, a start date that has moved — reply into that same thread rather than sending a fresh application, and the record stays in one piece.
Note
The group spans wine, hospitality and development, so the same CV rarely suits two worlds equally. Applying to one world well beats applying to all of them at once.
Before you send
Check the attachment is attached and opens, and that your phone number and email are on the CV itself, not only in the message. A CV separated from its email is still readable; a CV with no contact details on it is not answerable.
