Our Process
How We Work
A structured, transparent process — from the moment you brief us to the moment your candidate starts work.
- Step 01
Brief
We spend time understanding the role, the regulatory requirements, the team, and what a successful hire actually looks like — before we start.
- Step 02
Market Mapping
We map the market — identifying who holds similar roles at competitor firms, who has recently moved, and who might be open to the right opportunity.
- Step 03
Direct Outreach
We approach candidates directly and discreetly. No mass advertising. Targeted, professional outreach to the right individuals — many of whom are not actively looking.
- Step 04
Screening
We conduct structured interviews, verify employment history, assess regulatory approvability, and check background — before you see a single CV.
- Step 05
Shortlist
You receive 3–5 pre-screened, pre-qualified candidates with our written assessment of each. Not a pile of CVs — a curated shortlist.
- Step 06
Placement & Guarantee
We support interviews, offer negotiation, and onboarding through to start date. If the candidate does not complete probation — we replace at no cost.

Latest Insights
View AllIn Cyprus, a mid-level compliance officer at a CySEC-regulated firm typically earns €3,500–€5,500 net per month, and the employer adds roughly 15% on top of gross salary in statutory contributions. In the UAE there is no personal income tax or employer social security for expatriates, but you pay for the visa, health insurance and an end-of-service gratuity. A senior Head of Compliance & MLRO role we recently handled for a CMA-licensed firm was budgeted at USD 6,000–9,000 per month. Recruitment through HRFinEase costs one month of gross salary, payable only after the hire starts.
Plan on 6–12 weeks from brief to an approved start date. The search itself is rarely the slow part: we usually deliver a shortlist within 2–4 weeks. Most of the time goes on the candidate's notice period and the regulator's sign-off. In Cyprus, statutory notice runs from 1 to 8 weeks depending on length of service. In the UAE, contracts must set notice between 30 and 90 days, and since January 2026 executive appointments at CMA-licensed firms need prior approval.
Use a recruiter to find people, and an employer of record (EOR) to employ people in countries where you have no entity. For regulated key functions (compliance officer, MLRO/AMLCO, key individuals, licensed-entity directors), the person should normally be employed by the licensed entity itself, not by an EOR. Regulators approve individuals for a role at the licensed firm, and some rules forbid outsourcing those functions outright. EOR is a good fit for non-regulated roles such as sales, support, marketing and engineering in markets where you are not yet set up.
