Specialists from Ukraine for businesses in Dubai

BestHeads is a Ukrainian recruitment agency, on the market since 2017. We recruit specialists from Ukraine for beauty salons, photo and video studios, real estate agencies, brands and private homes in Dubai and the other emirates.

UAE companies look for makeup artists, photographers, videographers and assistants, as well as lashmakers and housekeepers. Clients come to us when they need a specialist with proven experience who is ready to work in Dubai and speaks Russian or Ukrainian.

 

The main employers in Dubai are local salons, agencies and families, and they hire for the quality of the work. Ukrainian lash technicians are strong at extensions, photographers and videographers bring their own ideas to a shoot, and cleaners and housekeepers keep the high standards of cleanliness common in Ukraine and other post-Soviet countries.

We run the whole search: we find candidates, check their portfolio and experience and present the strongest. Interviews and the final choice stay with you.
