Collaborate with compliance, technology, and data teams to ensure effective system integration and deployment
Document methodologies, assumptions, and validation results in line with regulatory standards
Provide insights and recommendations to improve overall financial crime risk management frameworks

Key Requirements

Proven experience in transaction monitoring, AML analytics, or financial crime consulting
Strong hands-on expertise with transaction monitoring systems (e.g., Actimize, Fircosoft, SAS AML, or similar)
Experience in model validation, scenario design, and threshold optimisation
Proficiency in data analysis tools (SQL, Python, SAS, or similar)
Solid understanding of AML regulations and typologies (preferably within banking environments)
Ability to translate complex analytical findings into actionable business recommendations
Strong stakeholder management and communication skills

Preferred Qualifications

Experience working with Middle East banking clients or regulators
Familiarity with risk-based approaches and regulatory expectations in the UAE
Background in consulting or project-based environments

What You'll Deliver

More effective and efficient transaction monitoring rules
Reduced false positives without compromising risk coverage
Clear, defensible model validation and documentation
Tangible improvements in financial crime detection capability

Contract Details

Competitive day rate (dependent on experience)
Initial contract with potential extension
On-site / hybrid working model in Dubai
