About

Most global EOR providers rely on third-party networks to cover the Gulf. MasdarEOR is different – we own and operate direct licensed entities in all 6 GCC countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, and Oman). No intermediaries. No subcontracting. Full compliance from day one. As Managing Director, I’ve spent 17+ years helping Fortune 500 companies, defence contractors, energy firms, and tech companies hire, deploy, and pay professionals across the Gulf – often within days, not months. What makes our model unique: ✔ Direct visa sponsorship through our own entities – no third-party routing ✔ Green Nitaqat status in Saudi Arabia (top compliance tier for Saudization) ✔ Full WPS, GOSI, PIFSS, SIO, and LMRA compliance across the region ✔ Fixed, transparent pricing with VAT exemption – no hidden costs ✔ Licensed manpower provider under ISTIQDAM (KSA) and MoHRE (UAE) ✔ 24-hour communication turnaround with local in-country teams Whether you’re a global EOR platform looking for a trusted GCC partner, a company expanding into Saudi Arabia or the UAE without a local entity, or a recruitment agency needing visa sponsorship for placed candidates – we’ve built the infrastructure so you don’t have to. I work directly with: • Global EOR platforms needing compliant GCC coverage • Companies entering GCC markets without setting up legal entities • Global payroll providers requiring WPS-compliant processing • Recruitment agencies seeking visa sponsorship solutions Let’s connect if you’re looking to expand into the Gulf with zero compliance risk.
