About Global Kinect
Based in Dubai. Running MENA payroll every day.
Global Kinect was built in the market it serves. We run statutory payroll across eleven MENA countries — as a bureau when you keep submission control, as a managed platform when you want HRIS and EOR connected to the same data.
Global Kinect runs payroll, HRIS, and EOR for businesses operating across the Middle East and North Africa. One platform, one login, one view of every country you employ in. Bureau and managed delivery models share the same engine.
Our Story
Why Global Kinect exists
Most businesses managing a workforce across multiple countries are dealing with the same problem. A different service provider per country. A different spreadsheet per pay run. No single view of what their people cost, where they are, or whether they are compliant.
Global Kinect was built to replace that. One platform for payroll, EOR, and HRIS — across 11 MENA countries. Use one module or all three. Platform access or fully managed. The complexity disappears. What remains is a clean, accurate, real-time view of your entire workforce.
Our Values
What guides our work
Simplicity by design
We built one platform that runs MENA payroll end to end — bureau or managed, your choice. Simple is harder to build than complex. We chose simple.
Compliance built in
Every country has its own rules. Ours are coded into the platform — not bolted on later, not delegated to the client to figure out.
One relationship
One account. One support contact. One invoice. However many countries you operate in.
