About the Role

We are currently seeking a detail-oriented and proactive KYC Analyst to support the onboarding and ongoing due diligence of clients for a leading bank in Dubai. This is a contract role ideal for professionals with a strong understanding of KYC, AML, and regulatory compliance requirements within the UAE banking environment.

You will play a key role in ensuring the bank meets its compliance obligations by reviewing and validating customer documentation, performing risk assessments, and liaising with internal teams to maintain high-quality client records.

Key Responsibilities

  • Collect, review, and validate KYC documents including identification, proof of address, legal entity information, and source of wealth/funds.
  • Perform initial and periodic risk assessments and customer risk profiling.
  • Escalate higher-risk clients to compliance or financial crime teams where appropriate.
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date client files and records in accordance with internal and regulatory standards.
  • Liaise with front office, compliance, and operations teams to resolve documentation or risk-related queries.
  • Support remediation and refresh projects, ensuring that KYC files are up to date and compliant.
  • Keep abreast of regulatory changes and assist in implementing updates to KYC processes and controls.

Key Requirements

  • Proven experience in KYC/AML roles, preferably within a banking environment in the UAE or wider GCC region.
  • Strong knowledge of UAE Central Bank regulations, FATF guidelines, and global AML standards.
  • Familiarity with customer types including retail, corporate, high-net-worth (HNW), and offshore entities.
  • Excellent organizational skills with strong attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Ability to manage high volumes of work while maintaining quality and turnaround times.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills to work cross-functionally.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools and experience with KYC/CRM systems.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Law, Business, or a related field.
  • AML or compliance certifications such as CAMS, ICA, or similar are a plus.
  • Arabic language skills are an advantage, but not required.

What’s on Offer

  • Work with one of the UAE’s top-tier banking institutions.
  • Exposure to a fast-paced, multicultural financial environment.
  • Competitive day rate and potential for contract extension.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
