About the Role: Responsibilities, Skills, and Requirements
Introduction
Looking for a fresh start or an exciting new role that doesn’t require years of experience? Maybe you simply want a steady job with reliable hours and the chance to pick up some new, practical skills. As a Food Packaging Technician in the bustling Al Quoz district of Dubai, you’ll have the opportunity to do just that — with full training provided. We’re eager to welcome motivated men and women ready for hands-on work, stable pay, and a team that values a job well done.
About the Company
Our team has grown alongside Dubai’s reputation as a hub for quality-driven food production. Here in Al Quoz, we’re a close-knit, multicultural crew who know how to keep things moving — and, yes, we always remember to celebrate birthdays (usually with something sweet from the production line!). While we take food safety and hygiene seriously, the vibe among colleagues is supportive and upbeat, especially when we’re hitting our goals together. Whether you’re new to the industry or just new to Dubai, you’ll fit in as soon as you walk through our doors.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Assembling, loading, and sealing a variety of food packages — keeping an eye on precision and presentation
- Checking products for freshness and quality before packaging them
- Following step-by-step instructions, and working flexibly across different packaging stations
- Cleaning and maintaining equipment and workspace in line with safety and hygiene rules
- Helping with labeling, boxing, and moving packaged goods for shipping
- Reporting any irregularities or issues to your supervisor — because your input matters
- Pitching in wherever the team needs an extra hand (sometimes we shuffle things around to keep the day interesting!)
What You’ll Bring
Must-Haves:
- A strong work ethic and physical stamina for standing shifts
- Willingness to learn new processes and follow instructions carefully
- Team-player attitude and respect for diversity
- Basic ability to communicate in English or Hindi
Nice-to-Haves:
- Previous experience in any factory, warehouse, or kitchen setting
- A keen eye for detail and a bit of pride in neatness
Not sure you tick every box? We’d still love to hear from you.

- Fixed monthly salary of AED 3,000, plus paid overtime opportunities
- Shared staff accommodation provided (so no housing worries in Dubai!)
- On-the-job training — no experience required
- Supportive colleagues and approachable supervisors
- Team meals and breaks that bring everyone together
- Real prospects to grow with us if you stick around
At the end of the day, you’ll clock out knowing you made a tangible impact — and you’ll never have to bring work home. Just a heads up: this opportunity is through a reputable recruitment agency that does require a job application fee. If you’re ready for a reliable job where effort is valued and every team member counts, we look forward to welcoming you aboard.
