1. Objective
Choose Brand Awareness for best & cheapest results. Especially if it is first time you target this audience on Linkedin
2. Audience

Do not select Dubai (only a fraction of Linkedin members have updated their city in their profile so it will exclude majority of members in Dubai who do not have an updated profile from your target)
Select List Upload & upload your lists
Select the right combination of filters, for example:
Job function AND Job seniority (or Job titles)
AND
Company Industry
AND
Company employee size

If you have too much budget and you want Linkedin algo to expand your campaign to a larger and relevant audience, go for it.
4. Ad format
Choose Single Image for now
