- At least 6 to 10 years of experience in financial crime compliance, fraud risk, AML, sanctions, or assurance work within banking or financial services.
- Good working knowledge of AML/CFT frameworks, fraud risk practices, and sanctions requirements in Qatar or other comparable GCC markets.
- Background in assurance, control testing, internal audit, or second-line monitoring in financial crime and/or fraud-related areas.
