  • Maintain an accurate tracker for visa, passport, Emirates ID, labour card, insurance, and occupational licence expiry dates.
  • Follow up with employees and relevant parties to ensure renewals are completed on time.
  • Prepare supporting letters, NOCs, salary certificates, and other employment-related documents.
  • Ensure HR processes comply with UAE labour requirements and company procedures.

Payroll and Benefits Support

  • Prepare and verify monthly payroll inputs, including new joiners, leavers, salary changes, promotions, allowances, deductions, overtime, leave, and unpaid absences.
  • Maintain accurate records of approved salary adjustments and employee benefits.
  • Coordinate employee medical insurance enrolments, amendments, and cancellations.

  • Monitor attendance, absences, leave balances, and employee documentation.
  • Follow up with employees and managers regarding missing attendance or leave information.
  • Maintain accurate physical and electronic personnel files.
  • Update the HR system promptly whenever there is a change in an employee’s position, salary, reporting line, work location, or personal details.
  • Prepare employee letters and certificates within the required timelines.

Performance and Employee Development

  • Coordinate probation reviews, annual performance appraisals, promotion trials, and salary-review documentation.
  • Follow up with managers to ensure evaluations are completed on time and supported by clear performance evidence.
  • Maintain records of promotions, salary adjustments, development plans, and performance actions.
  • Support training coordination, attendance records, certificates, and employee development initiatives.

Employee Relations and Engagement

  • Respond to routine employee queries professionally and escalate sensitive matters to the HR Manager.
  • Support employee-engagement activities, recognition programmes, celebrations, and CSR initiatives.
  • Draft internal announcements relating to promotions, achievements, new joiners, policies, and company activities.
  • Assist in ensuring employees receive consistent and accurate HR information.

  • Coordinate resignation, termination, and end-of-service procedures.
  • Prepare clearance documents and follow up with all departments to complete the offboarding process.
  • Coordinate visa and insurance cancellations and the return of company property.
  • Support the calculation and verification of final payroll inputs and employee entitlements.
  • Maintain complete and accurate leaver records.

HR Reporting and Administration

  • Maintain HR dashboards and trackers covering headcount, vacancies, turnover, leave, probation, visas, training, and employee movements.
  • Prepare monthly HR reports for management review.
  • Monitor HR deadlines and follow up proactively without requiring repeated reminders.
  • Assist in updating HR policies, procedures, forms, organisational charts, and job descriptions.
  • Support HR audits by ensuring that records and supporting documents are complete and easily accessible.
  • Handle other HR coordination and administrative duties assigned by the HR Manager.

Candidate Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Human Resources, Business Administration, or a related field.
  • At least 2–3 years of experience in an HR coordination or HR generalist role, preferably in the UAE.
  • Good understanding of UAE employment practices and HR documentation.

  • Ability to work independently, prioritise urgent matters, and meet deadlines.

We need someone who takes ownership, identifies pending actions early, and follows tasks through to completion. The right candidate will not only provide administrative support but will also help improve HR efficiency, employee experience, record accuracy, and compliance.
