Why Giftify

Giftify is a dynamic and innovative player in the fintech space, proudly shaping the future of corporate gifting solutions. Based in the heart of Dubai, our team is composed of passionate individuals who thrive on turning bold ideas into reality. At Giftify, your leadership, ownership, and ability to follow through are valued as we create meaningful connections for our clients through groundbreaking solutions.

Your Mission

As a People Partner at Giftify, you'll play a key role in shaping an exceptional employee experience across our Middle Eastern operations while contributing to global HR initiatives. You'll manage day-to-day HR operations and support strategic projects that enhance efficiency, engagement, and compliance. Reporting directly to the Head of People, you will bring expertise in employment law and benefits in the Middle East, with additional exposure to European or Asian HR practices being a strong asset.

By leveraging technology and automation, you will reduce manual work and focus on what matters most—empowering our people and driving Giftify's success.

Responsibilities

  • Employee Experience & Moments That Matter:
    Act as the key point of contact for employees, ensuring their journey—from onboarding to offboarding—leaves a lasting positive impression. You'll create "moments that matter" by fostering connection and reinforcing our values.
  • Digital HR & Automation:
    Use cutting-edge HR tools and automation to streamline processes, reduce administrative tasks, and improve the employee experience.
  • HR Operations:
    Oversee day-to-day HR functions, including employee engagement, performance management, onboarding, payroll oversight, compliance, and training.
  • Employee Development:
    Design and implement growth-focused initiatives that enable employees to unlock their full potential, while also supporting performance management.
  • PRO Services & Free-Zone Authorities:
    Manage relationships with PRO service providers and liaise with free-zone authorities, such as DMCC, to ensure smooth processing of visas, permits, and other legal documentation.
  • Policy & Compliance:
    Implement HR policies that reflect our culture while ensuring compliance with labour laws and regulations in the Middle East.
  • International HR Support:
    Collaborate on multi-regional HR strategies and manage compliance with local labour laws across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

About You

At Giftify, we value placing the right talent in the right roles to drive our mission forward. We're looking for someone who:

  • Has 3-5 years of experience as an HR Generalist within a fast-paced, international environment, preferably in fintech or financial services.
  • Possesses a deep understanding of Middle Eastern employment law and benefits, with exposure to European or Asian HR practices being a strong plus.
  • Has experience working with PRO services and liaising with free-zone authorities such as DMCC.
  • Is digitally savvy, with strong expertise in HR tech and automation tools to drive efficiency.
  • Has solid experience in both soft and hard HR functions, including compliance, payroll oversight, and employee engagement.
  • Is fluent in English and Arabic.
  • Demonstrates excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to build trust across all levels of the organization.
  • Thrives in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and is adaptable, proactive, and solution-oriented.
  • Is committed to continuous professional development to stay ahead in HR trends and practices.

What We Offer

  • A unique opportunity to make a tangible impact in the thriving fintech sector, with plenty of growth opportunities.
  • A culture of ownership and empowerment, where your contributions directly influence our success.
  • A diverse, motivated, and innovative team with a shared passion for delivering exceptional solutions.
  • A hybrid working environment with a focus on work-life balance.
  • A competitive salary package, including:
    • Generous annual leave allowance
    • Performance-based bonus
    • Health and group insurance
    • Home office allowance
