HR Consulting
Build a workforce that’s compliant, capable, and ready to grow.
From first hires to organisation-wide change, Zaitoon’s HR consulting helps UAE businesses get the people side of the business right.
Who we work with
- Founders making their first hires who need contracts, policy, and a hiring process they can actually run.
- Growing SMEs that have outgrown ad-hoc HR and need real structure — pay bands, performance reviews, leave policy, the lot.
- Established companies facing a specific HR challenge: an Emiratisation deadline, a difficult exit, a restructure, or a compliance gap.
Services
- Recruitment strategy and execution — role definition, sourcing, interviewing, and offer support.
- Employment contracts and policies — UAE-compliant contracts, employee handbooks, leave and conduct policies.
- Emiratisation planning — practical, MOHRE-aligned plans for businesses that fall under quotas.
- Compensation and benefits design — pay bands, bonus structures, and benchmarking against the local market.
- Performance management frameworks — review cycles, KPIs, and the templates managers will actually use.
- HR audits — a structured review of your current HR posture, with a prioritised list of fixes.
How we work
01. Listen first
A discovery conversation to understand the business, the people, and the problem behind the problem. We don’t pitch in this call.
02. Propose in writing
A scoped proposal with deliverables, timeline, and a fixed price. You decide whether to proceed.
03. Deliver and document
We do the work alongside your team, leave behind clear documentation, and stay reachable for follow-up questions.
FAQs
We already have an HR person — can you still help?
Yes. Many of our engagements augment an in-house HR team rather than replace them. Think of us as the deep-dive partner for projects that don’t fit the day-to-day workload.
Are you a recruitment agency?
No. We help you design and run a hiring process — including sourcing and interviews — but we don’t operate on agency commission. Our fees are fixed and transparent.
Can you help with Emiratisation?
Yes. We help businesses understand their obligation under MOHRE rules, plan a realistic path to meeting it, and document the process correctly.
How long does an engagement usually last?
Anything from a one-week audit to a three-month structured programme. We scope every project up front so there are no surprises.
