The Challenge

A global enterprise IT vendor was ramping up its presence in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) following strong revenue performance in Europe and APAC. The company had no prior recruitment footprint in the region and needed to make 14 critical hires across sales leadership, channel development, solution engineering, and regional operations.

Their internal team flagged three immediate challenges:

No Local Partner: They lacked a regional recruitment partner with enterprise tech expertise and MENA market knowledge.

Urgent Timelines: Several roles were tied to product launches and client onboarding targets in KSA and UAE.

Cost Control: They wanted to avoid fragmented agency fees and preferred a bundled, transparent hiring model.

After evaluating several traditional search firms, the client engaged Talaas to execute a project-based hiring solution aligned with their GTM expansion plan.

Hear what they had to say
This was one of the most seamless regional build-outs I’ve seen. Talaas didn’t just fill roles, they acted as true partners. From designing the right team structure to navigating local hiring complexity, they made it feel easy. Their monthly pricing gave us budget confidence, and the results spoke for themselves. 14 hires, zero dropouts, full impact.
