Confidentiality
Discretion is fundamental to what we do. We handle every mandate and candidate interaction with the highest level of confidentiality — ensuring complete trust throughout the search process.​

A Personal Touch
We build long-term relationships grounded in transparency and trust. Our clients value us as genuine partners — attentive, responsive, and deeply invested in achieving the right result, not just a quick placement.
Attention to Detail
Every search begins with a deep understanding of our client’s business, culture, and objectives. We tailor each engagement to align perfectly with those nuances — because precision drives successful outcomes.​
Deep Market Knowledge
Our daily conversations with investors, founders, and C-suite leaders give us a unique lens on market trends and talent movement across the region. This perspective informs every search, giving our clients a strategic advantage.
Why Investment Management?
We’re fortunate to be at the forefront of a new era. In recent years, the Middle East has firmly established itself as a leading global financial hub. Driven by a pro-business environment, its strategic central location, and forward-thinking initiatives from the DIFC, ADGM, and Saudi Arabia. As a result, asset managers, hedge funds, private equity firms, and banks have expanded aggressively into the region, creating an unprecedented opportunity for the talent market to thrive.
​
At Oneira, we’re proud to partner with globally recognized financial institutions as they navigate and capitalize on this exciting phase of regional and global transformation.
George Sames
Founder & Managing Director
I launched Oneira with the goal of offering something genuinely different. I found that Investment Firms in the region were lacking a talent partner that truly understood their needs, and could spend the time building real, long term relationships. We're here to break the transactional recruitment model, and operate as a true partnership.
