Job Title: Executive Assistant to Founder

Location: Dubai, UAE

Industry: Technology

Salary: Up to 22,500 AED per month

Type: Full-time (Flexibility required)


About the Company:

We’re representing a dynamic and rapidly growing tech company based in Dubai, known for its high-energy environment, fast-paced innovation, and entrepreneurial leadership. With exciting plans for expansion and a culture that blends hard work with social engagement, this is an opportunity to be part of something exceptional from the inside out.


The Role:

We’re seeking a sharp, ambitious, and adaptable Executive Assistant to directly support the Founder. This isn’t your average EA role—this is for someone who thrives under pressure, loves variety, and enjoys being the glue that holds it all together.

You’ll be working closely with the Founder across both business and personal matters, acting as the first point of contact with key internal and external stakeholders. You’ll also be heavily involved in planning high-end events, managing personal assets, and coordinating an ever-changing schedule.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide high-level executive support to the Founder, managing an extremely dynamic calendar and prioritizing daily demands
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with internal stakeholders, clients, and partners on behalf of the Founder
  • Organize and oversee business and personal events, including off-sites, parties, dinners, and travel
  • Manage personal affairs and assets including property, appointments, and other private commitments
  • Ensure seamless coordination between professional and personal obligations
  • Handle confidential matters with discretion and trust
  • Occasionally accompany the Founder to events and travel as needed
  • Be available outside of typical office hours when required


What We’re Looking For:

  • Prior experience supporting a C-Level Executive or Entrepreneur, ideally in a fast-paced or startup environment
  • Confident, well-presented, and emotionally intelligent with exceptional stakeholder management skills
  • Highly organized, adaptable, and proactive in anticipating needs
  • Young, energetic, and socially confident—someone who enjoys a fast lifestyle, events, and the occasional drink
  • Ability to handle both business and personal responsibilities with equal professionalism
  • Based in or willing to relocate to Dubai with flexibility on working hours (this isn’t a 9-5!)


Perks & Culture:

  • Be at the heart of a growing tech business with visionary leadership
  • Work in a social, vibrant, and engaging culture
  • Opportunities to travel and attend exclusive events
  • Competitive salary and bonus structure
