Ankura is a team of excellence founded on innovation and growth.


This position will be within the Data Analytics team which sits inside the Data & Technology business - one of seven practices focused on client delivery services across the Firm.


Ankura is one of the top five fastest growing consulting firms with 2,000+ employees in more than 36 offices worldwide, providing a range of services to both the private and public sectors.

Our Dubai Data Analytics practice is a pivotal hub for several Data and Technology Solutions provided by Ankura globally. Our experts help a large variety of clients across many sectors in both proactive and reactive projects.


Proactive We address our clients' needs to better understand and accordingly leverage their own datasets in order to improve performance.

This can happen in many forms, such improving a client's IT infrastructure and how their various systems are interconnected or developing custom algorithms and user interfaces
