A school runs on more than just lesson plans and exam papers. It runs on the people who make it all possible—the teachers, the support staff, the administrators, and the HR team that brings them all together. Dubai Modern Education School understands this, and is looking for an HR professional who can step into a busy, people-centred environment and make a real difference.

This is not a role for someone who prefers to work in isolation. It is for an HR professional who enjoys being at the heart of a large organisation, handling everything from recruitment to visa processing to employee relations. You will be the person who helps teachers and staff join the school, settle in, and thrive. You will manage onboarding, coordinate visa applications, and ensure compliance with Emiratisation requirements. You will also handle employee queries, support recruitment efforts, and maintain the kind of warm, professional HR presence that makes people feel valued.

The ideal candidate brings previous HR experience in a school environment. You understand the rhythm of an educational institution—the recruitment cycles, the documentation requirements, and the importance of clear communication. You have hands-on experience with UAE visa processing and a good understanding of Emiratisation requirements. Your communication and organisational skills are strong, and you are comfortable handling sensitive matters with discretion and professionalism.

This is a full-time, on-site position based in Dubai. The salary is AED 6,000–7,000 per month, and immediate joiners are preferred. You will be joining a well-established school with a strong reputation and a supportive team environment.

Salary:
AED 6,000 – 7,000 per month
