Benefits at Nakoda AI
What the job comes with.
Written out rather than called competitive. If it is not on this page, we do not offer it.
What is covered
What a full-time hire gets. Open a group for the detail.

- Medical insurance for you, and for dependents on full-time contracts
- Sick leave and medical cover in line with UAE labour law
- Mental health support, kept separate from your manager and the firm
- A workspace set up properly - desk, chair, screens, and adjustments where they are needed
- Sports and fitness club passes, paid by the firm
- Flexibility around appointments without spending annual leave on them
Financial wellbeingPaid properly, with no costs pushed back onto you.5 items
- Salary benchmarked to the Dubai professional-services market, reviewed annually
- End-of-service gratuity as set out in UAE labour law
- Visa, Emirates ID and medical costs carried by the firm, never deducted
- Performance-linked bonus tied to division results rather than a forced curve

Flexibility and time offThe time you need, and enough control over the calendar to use it.6 items
- 30 calendar days of annual leave, plus UAE public holidays
- Remote across the GCC for the roles that are posted that way
- Hybrid weeks around delivery, agreed with your division rather than a policy page
- Travel leave on top of annual leave, for the trip home or the one you have been planning
- Hours that flex around client commitments and prayer times
- Leave you are actually expected to take - it is tracked, and unused balances get chased
Family and relocationFor the people who move here, and the people who come with them.5 items
- Employment visa sponsored for full-time hires, with support for family sponsorship
- Parental leave under UAE labour law, for both parents
- Practical relocation help - the first weeks, the paperwork, the things nobody warns you about
- Compassionate and bereavement leave, handled without a process
- Schooling and housing guidance from people who have done the same move
Learning and developmentWe run a division that teaches boards and audit committees. You get a seat.5 items
- A seat in the programmes Division 06 runs, including the ones clients pay for
- Support for the credentials your division works to - ISACA and equivalent
- One accountable lead beside you from your first engagement, not a buddy scheme
- A move between divisions is a conversation, not an application
- Conference and event attendance through the Community division's calendar
The day to dayWhat the week is actually like.10 items
- A Dubai office built for client work and quiet work, not open-plan theatre
- Majlis sessions, the newsroom and the Brief - you can write for them
- Kit that fits the work, chosen with you rather than issued to you
- Bring your own device if you prefer it, with a secure setup and an allowance towards it
- A paid coding-agent subscription for anyone whose work touches a codebase
- A pool table and a board-game shelf, and no sideways looks for using them
- Office snacks, coffee and a stocked pantry, on the firm
- Kudos vouchers: colleagues recognise great work, and the recognition comes with a voucher
- Time to volunteer with the community programmes the firm runs
- A team small enough that the person who made a decision is in the room
Set at the contract, not at the offer call.
Cover, leave and the visa position are written into the contract before you are asked to decide.
