Key areas of focus are likely to include: (i) providing strategic FSR legal advice to banks, fintech disrupters, insurance companies, and private equity firms; (ii) assisting clients to leverage technology to drive operational efficiency and innovation and navigate regulatory challenges; (iii) supporting clients throughout the licensing journey, from ideation to scaling market leaders; (iv) offering expert guidance on - and navigating the fast-changing landscapes governing - the issuance of digital assets, payments, crowdfunding, and related regulatory/compliance issues; and (v) collaborating with global FSR teams to deliver innovative solutions and strategies.

Applicants will need to be qualified lawyers with a current practicing certificate (or equivalent) and a degree from a recognized institution; they should also be technically strong and commercially savvy with first-rate analytical, communication, and negotiation skills; an in-depth understanding of the financial regulation sector in the Middle East (including key regulatory frameworks and market trends) will also be needed. Experience of advising on technology transactions, data protection and cybersecurity would be a plus (though is not essential).
