Al Ansari Exchange, a leading provider of worldwide remittance and foreign exchange services, is staging an extensive participation at the ‘National Career Exhibition 2010’, a specialised career-focused event for the UAE banking and financial sector, which opened today (February 24, 2010) at the Sharjah Expo Centre. Following its success in last year’s exhibition where over 2,000 UAE nationals applied for available positions, the company announced that it is expecting the application of more than 2,500 Emiratis during this year’s event, which will run until the 26th.
The leading exchange house has been active in participating in recruitment events in line with its commitment to the country’s Emiratization programme, which focuses on providing suitable employment to local talents. The company seeks to highlight the excellent career advancement opportunities it can offer UAE nationals in the realm of worldwide remittance and foreign exchange services and leverage this talent to grow its operations across the country. This includes full training on anti-money laundering and money exchange, as well as on Al Ansari’s services including Auto Remit, Cash Express eExchange and Online Remittances.
“Hiring local talents is imbedded in our corporate policy because they provide us with excellent advantage in terms of the use of Arabic language in communicating with a large percentage of our clients and global partners, among other valuable contributions to our organisation,” said Mohammad Al Ansari, Managing Director, Al Ansari Exchange. “In exchange, we provide local applicants with excellent training that hone their capabilities to excel in the remittance and foreign exchange services market, or if they decide to work with local and international banks. We attend career-oriented exhibitions such as the ‘National Career Exhibition 2010’ to find the most qualified local talents to join our team, and we are confident that we will be able to surpass the number of applications from UAE nationals we have received last year.”
Since its establishment in 1966, Al Ansari Exchange has carved a niche in the market by offering reliable, customer-oriented products and services, including worldwide money transfer, foreign exchange, transfers through Western Union & Cash Express, and door-to-door delivery of remittance. The company also provides ancillary services, such as cash advance and encashment against credit cards, credit card bill payment, and issuance of National Bonds certificates, travelers’ cheques, and e-exchange, among others.
“We are committed to enhancing the exchange industry by providing newly hired personnel solid professional foundation that will allow them to cope with industry requirements and thus open up a promising future for their career in the financial sector. These new recruits will also play a significant role as we move towards achieving our goal to operate 100 branches across the UAE and in strengthening our partnerships with over 150 correspondent banks and agents worldwide,” concluded Al Ansari.
