Executive Assistant, Beauty and Fragrance, Dubai

Are you an experienced Executive Assistant who thrives working directly alongside a highly driven founder, and who can move seamlessly between board level priorities and the pace of a personal brand built in the public eye?

Our client is a fast growing, globally recognised beauty and fragrance brand, founded in 2018 and now operating at genuine international scale. Based in Dubai, they are continuing to build out their own dedicated processes and leadership structure as the business matures. They are hiring an Executive Assistant to work closely with the founder and partner directly with the Chief of Staff, supporting everything from high level business projects to the day to day running of the founder’s world.

This is not a standard nine to five support role. The founder is highly engaged and hands on across the business, and this person will need to move at her pace, often outside of typical office hours. A separate Personal Assistant handles the founder’s personal life and logistics, so this role is firmly focused on the business side, though the two will work closely together.

What’s in it for you:

• Direct, close proximity to a founder who is genuinely building and shaping a category leading global brand

• Real variety, from partnering on business projects with the Chief of Staff to supporting major brand moments and high profile initiatives

• A creative, fast moving environment within the beauty and fragrance world, not a traditional corporate setting

• Base salary up to AED 25,000 per month plus 10% discretionary bonus and a strong benefits package

What you’ll be doing:

• Managing a complex, fast changing calendar alongside the Chief of Staff

• Partnering on business projects and initiatives that span the wider leadership team

• Coordinating international travel, often at short notice

• Preparing materials and briefings ahead of high level meetings

• Acting as a trusted point of contact between the founder, the Chief of Staff, and senior stakeholders

• Staying one step ahead of shifting priorities and pre empting what’s needed before it’s asked for

What we need:

• Proven experience as an Executive Assistant supporting a founder, chairman, or senior executive in a high profile, fast paced environment

• Comfort with genuine flexibility around working hours and last minute change

• Strong international travel availability, with no visa restrictions that would prevent short notice travel to the UK or US

• Based in Dubai for the long term, this is a role for someone building a career here, not a short term stop

• Excellent judgement, discretion, and the ability to build trust quickly with senior stakeholders

• A genuine interest in beauty, fragrance, or the wider creative and lifestyle space is a strong plus

If you want to work at the centre of a brand that’s still being built, not just maintained, we’d like to hear from you.
