Aaron Portero

Aaron is the Managing Director of Connect Resources and Connect Group. He is also a qualified Spanish lawyer and a locally registered legal consultant in Dubai, UAE. If we could describe Aaron in three words it would be quick-witted, humorous and fast.

His passion for business was evident as early as 2014 when he started a company, “Run & Fit”, with his friend and partner in Spain. He grew this business from the ground up; however, always eager for new challenges, after it became a success he sold his share to his partner. However, his heart remained in business even during this time, where he continued to also develop his commercial awareness. After starting out in Connect Resources as their Strategic Partnership Manager, his corporate savviness and astute interpersonal skills were soon noticed and enabled him to quickly take the position of Managing Director, where he has since propelled Connect Resources and Connect Group to new heights of success. On top of that he is the companies’ youngest Managing Director to date.
