Job description

We are Identiscents

A UAE-based design-to-delivery ecosystem for the beauty and perfumery industry, working across fragrance and primary packaging. Founded in 1997, we design in the UAE, develop in Europe, and deliver globally.

Our ecosystem operates through four adjacent engines: Distribution & Supply Chain, Projects & Fast Fashion, IP & Production, and People, Systems & Intelligence — enabling us to sense markets, transform ideas into products, and deliver consistently at scale.

Our structural resonance is a circular hierarchy in which leadership is exercised through role and contribution rather than title. We remove distortion in structure, timing, roles, and interfaces so natural dynamics can emerge and energy can flow.

We build long-term alliances with clients and suppliers, with the ambition to develop a modern Maison, grounded in craft, designed for scale, and built to last.

At the heart of this ecosystem sits Operations — the connective tissue that transforms commercial intent into flawless execution.

To reinforce this core, we are seeking an Operations Coordinator: a stabiliser of flow, a conductor of detail, and a trusted link between teams, partners, and markets.

ROLE ESSENCE

We are looking for a highly organised, agile, and service-oriented Operations Coordinator — a Flow Orchestrator and Process Anchor.

This role ensures that sales commitments materialise into on-time, compliant, and seamless deliveries. Acting as the operational bridge between Sales, Logistics, Purchasing, Warehouse, and Finance, the Operations Coordinator keeps information aligned, documentation accurate, and execution friction-free.

Fluent in Arabic, English and French, this person plays a critical role in regional coordination, customs processes, and stakeholder communication across the GCC.

They operate through clarity, discipline, and collaboration — reinforcing the Maison’s operational rhythm and customer promise.
