Full-cycle recruitment consultant specializing in IT & cybersecurity hiring across Europe and the GCC.
What I'm looking for
I’m a full-cycle 360 recruitment consultant with 3+ years owning end-to-end hiring across cyber security, ERP and wider IT talent in Europe and the GCC. I specialize in cross-border hiring, relocating technical talent from Europe into Dubai and the wider GCC, and I enjoy building sourcing approaches that convert consistently from shortlist to close.
I bring a strong new-business track record, winning a sovereign wealth fund plus 2 further net-new clients, and I’ve billed AED 650K across Q3–Q4 2025. In my current role, I deliver 360 recruitment across UAE and KSA, placed hires quickly, and support a wide range of cybersecurity and IT needs—while staying driven by excellence and continuous progress.
