Payroll outsourcing is not only for large companies. Businesses come to MGCG when their finance team is stretched, when a payroll error has caused problems, when they are scaling quickly, or simply because payroll administration is not where they want their people spending time.
We manage payroll for companies in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah and across the wider Emirates.
Whether you employ your team through one UAE entity or operate across several countries, MGCG can support your payroll through a single relationship. We manage UAE payroll requirements and coordinate international payroll for businesses with employees across multiple markets, giving HR and finance teams one point of contact instead of managing separate providers independently.
Where you already employ your workforce through your own entities, we support the payroll administration. Where you do not have the appropriate local employing entity, our Employer of Record services provide an alternative solution.
