JOB OVERVIEW

We’re looking for an experienced UAE-based tax advisor and accountant to help ensure our business structure, accounting, taxes, and compliance are fully optimized and aligned correctly within the UAE system.

This is not an entry-level bookkeeping role. We are specifically looking for someone with deep experience in UAE tax law, corporate structuring, international founders, remote/online businesses, and ongoing compliance.

About Us

We operate online businesses and media/content companies internationally. We want a long-term advisor who can help us stay fully compliant, structured correctly, tax-efficient, and organized as we continue to scale.

What We Need Help With:

- UAE corporate tax compliance
- Accounting and bookkeeping oversight
- VAT guidance (if applicable)
- Free zone vs mainland structuring advice
- International business and residency considerations
- Tax optimization within legal UAE frameworks
- Financial reporting and organization
- Ensuring all filings and compliance obligations are handled correctly
- Advising on best practices for online/international businesses
- Potentially coordinating with banks, company formation providers, or auditors when needed

Requirements

- Extensive experience with UAE accounting and tax systems
- Strong understanding of UAE corporate tax laws
- Experience working with online businesses, agencies, creators, entrepreneurs, or international companies
- Ability to explain complex topics clearly and simply
- Highly organized and detail-oriented
- Strong English communication
- Proactive mindset — we want someone who can identify issues before they become problems
- Preferably has worked with high-revenue or internationally structured businesses

Huge Bonus If You Have Experience With:

- Free zones (DMCC, IFZA, Meydan, RAKEZ, etc.)
- International tax considerations for founders living/traveling abroad
- Digital businesses, agencies, media companies, or creator businesses
- Multi-country payment flows and online income structures
- UAE residency and compliance guidance

To Apply

Please send:

- Your experience specifically with UAE taxes/accounting
- Businesses or industries you’ve worked with
- Any relevant certifications
- Examples of complex UAE situations you’ve helped clients solve
- Why you believe you’d be a strong fit
- Your monthly or hourly pricing structure

Also include the phrase:
“UAE Compliance First”
at the top of your application so we know you read the full post.

We are looking for someone long-term who genuinely knows the UAE system inside and out and can help us operate properly as we scale.
