Who we are

We act as the legal employer of your employees, so you don’t have to. We manage contracts, visas, payroll and compliance on your behalf, while you retain full control over who joins your team and how they are managed. Where you need support identifying the right talent, our recruitment team can handle that too.

Who we work with

We support any business hiring in the UAE, including:

• Established companies scaling quickly, where hiring demand has outpaced the capacity of the internal team
• Startups without an HR function, where employment administration falls to a founder or whoever has the least time to spare
• Companies without a UAE legal entity, who want to test the market and build a team here before committing to a full setup

What we handle

• Employment contracts and onboarding
• Employee sponsorship and visa processing
• Payroll and statutory benefits
• Compliance with UAE labour law
• Recruitment, from shortlisting through to start date
• HR support and advisory

Why businesses choose us

Experience you can rely on. Over 20 years of UAE expertise, backed by the Smooth Group.

A single partner for hiring and employment. We source the employee and then employ them, so nothing is lost in the handover between providers.

Three patterns we see repeatedly

1. The hire is swift; the paperwork is not. Businesses secure the right candidate, only to lose weeks to visas, contracts and payroll setup.
2. Startups don’t need a full HR department on day one, but they do need employment done properly from the very first hire.
3. Getting it right early costs less. Correcting contracts and compliance gaps later is invariably more expensive than establishing them properly from the outset.
