Freelance jobs in United Arab Emirates

Location: Dubai
Engagement Type: Freelance / Fixed-Term Consulting Assignment
Expected Duration: 8–12 weeks (project-based, extendable if required)

Talent Blueprint operates in a high-stakes, project-driven environment where execution quality, speed, and reliability are critical. We recruit and deploy freelance and full-time talent across live events and operational environments, often under tight timelines and public-facing pressure.

As the business scales, we are formalizing our internal operating system — not to slow execution, but to protect standards, reduce dependency on individuals, and ensure repeatable, high-quality delivery.

This is a hands‑on, embedded role, not a high‑level advisory engagement.

You will work closely with leadership and functional teams to extract how the business actually operates today, then translate that reality into clear, enforceable Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and operating playbooks.

Your output will become the reference point for how work is executed across Talent Blueprint.

• Establish a single source of truth for TBP operations

• Eliminate ambiguity in roles, ownership, and handovers

• Translate live operations into clear, usable SOPs

• Identify and address structural risks, gaps, and inefficiencies

• Leave behind a scalable, maintainable operating framework

• Embed with leadership and functional owners to understand actual workflows, not assumed ones

• Map end‑to‑end current‑state operations across:

  • Recruitment and talent sourcing
  • Freelance and full‑time placement lifecycle
  • Client delivery and project execution
  • Operations, finance, invoicing, and compliance

• Document clear SOPs per function and per role, including:

  • Inputs and outputs
  • Decision rights and escalation paths
  • Ownership models (RACI or equivalent)
  • Handover points and dependencies

• Identify bottlenecks, single points of failure, role overlaps, and compliance or delivery risks

• Design practical, enforceable process improvements aligned with TBP’s pace and operating reality

• Deliver a structured SOP and operating framework that can be owned and maintained internally

• End‑to‑end process maps for all core functions
• Role‑based SOPs with clear ownership and escalation logic
• A consolidated SOP / Operating Framework playbook
• Defined handover, dependency, and decision‑rights structure

• Proven experience designing and documenting operating processes in live businesses
• Strong background in recruitment agencies, staffing, events, or other project‑driven environments
• Demonstrated ability to build SOPs and operating frameworks from scratch
• Comfortable challenging teams and surfacing inefficiencies
• Highly structured, detail‑oriented, and execution‑focused
• Able to simplify complex operations without losing rigor
• Strong written documentation skills with a focus on clarity and usability
• Commercial, practical mindset — not academic or theoretical

• TBP has a clear, documented operating framework
• Every core function has usable, adopted SOPs
• Ownership and accountability are unambiguous
• Leadership is no longer dependent on individuals to “know how things work”
• Teams execute more consistently with less friction

When applying, please include:

• A brief summary of similar SOP or operating framework work you have delivered
• The types of businesses or industries where you documented live operations
