About the Role: Responsibilities, Skills, and Requirements
Introduction
Ever found yourself being the kind of person everyone relies on—the one who keeps things running even when little surprises pop up through the day? As an Admin Assistant at our Deira, Dubai office, you'll be at the heart of the action, turning organized chaos into smooth operations. Whether it’s making sure schedules never clash or keeping our paperwork in check, your contributions will truly matter. If you love a role with variety and plenty of friendly faces, this is a spot where you can shine.
About the Company
We’re a diverse, tight-knit team based right in bustling Deira—think lively coffee breaks, a culture of genuine support, and a workday that doesn’t drag. Our office is dynamic, sometimes a little lively (especially around lunch!), but collaboration and help are always just a desk away. We value reliability, a little bit of laughter, and team players who don’t mind rolling up their sleeves. From sharing quick tips to celebrating the week’s wins on Thursday afternoons, we’re proud of the workplace vibe we’ve built.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Coordinating daily administrative tasks to keep things running on schedule (and off your desk by day’s end)
- Managing and updating important documents with diligence—paper trails are your specialty
- Assisting with data entry and ensuring information lands in the right place without a hitch
- Helping schedule meetings, appointments, and—very importantly—reminding folks what’s coming up next
- Answering calls, greeting office visitors, and making sure everyone finds what or who they’re looking for
- Supporting team members with ad-hoc requests, big or small, on those busy days (they’ll thank you later)
- Keeping stock of office supplies and flagging when something’s running low before panic sets in
What You’ll Bring
- Basic computer skills (Excel, Word, and the tools you use every day)
- Good communication—friendly, clear, and always professional
- Strong organizational abilities; attention to detail is your hidden talent
- Comfortable managing multiple small tasks at once and switching gears as needed
- Prior administrative experience is a plus but not a hard requirement
- Professional, flexible, and able to maintain confidentiality when needed
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.

- Dynamic office in the heart of Deira, with lots of cafes and lunch spots nearby
- Regular working hours so your evenings are yours to enjoy
