Some of the world’s most cutting-edge work is happening in the Middle East. The scale is unprecedented, the projects are ambitious, the returns are outsize.
With technology levelling the playing field and regulation flattening the arbitrage opportunity, companies and law firms are winning on the back of leadership and talent.
We are Vahura, a pioneering specialist recruitment firm from India.
After years of working with clients across the Middle East, we’ve now deepened our commitment with feet on the ground in Dubai.
The Middle East is not a ‘wait and watch’ kind of market. It doesn’t reward passivity, rigidity or siloes.
That’s why it’s the perfect stage for the globally minded risk professional, the kind of legal, finance and HR leader who gravitates naturally towards new challenges.
The elite lawyers on our roster and in our wide network are commercially minded and business-oriented. The finance leaders are not just number-crunchers—they are strategic contributors who are plugged into the global financial superhighway. Each one has a nose for the deal, an eye on the risk and the spine to take big strategic calls.
The HR professionals we connect you with have nurtured diverse teams in high-performance environments. They are uniquely equipped to manage people relations in a world where the rules of technology, data and work are constantly being redefined.
Client comes first. Our on-ground presence in Dubai stems from our multinational clients’ growing ambitions in the region
We’ve built a curated roster of 40,000 professionals, closed more than 10,000 positions, worked across 50+ industries
Our international research desk maps global talent, tracks trends and suggests tailored fits. It’s the engine for everything we do
Copy-pasting playbooks across regions is not our style. We make moves after studying the nuances of the market
Our team comprises qualified lawyers, CAs, MBAs. They’ve been clients & candidates at one point so are able to take a holistic view
Our average TAT is less than a week. For senior roles, our average time to offer is less than 2 months
Here’s an indicative and non-exhaustive list of mandates we’ve worked on across the region:
