Operations Assistant, Scanhub (contract)

Job Description

This contract role supports UOB’s Scanhub operations by preparing, scanning, indexing, verifying and filing documents, while ensuring information is captured accurately and handled securely. The candidate is expected to have strong attention to detail, basic computer and data-entry skills, and the ability to follow procedures consistently. Good organisational skills, reliability and confidentiality are important because the work may involve customer or banking records. Candidates should be comfortable performing repetitive tasks, meeting productivity and quality targets, and working independently or as part of a team. Previous experience in document processing, administration, banking operations or an image-processing environment would be useful. Singapore work eligibility and availability for the contract period may also be required.

Destination Guide

Singapore is a compact, well-connected island with opportunities in banking, fintech, technology, logistics, healthcare, hospitality, retail and professional services. Its multicultural society blends Chinese, Malay, Indian and international influences, reflected in languages, festivals, neighbourhoods and food. Life is convenient and generally safe, with excellent MRT and bus networks, reliable public services and many shopping, dining and recreation options. Housing can be expensive, especially in central areas, so newcomers often compare shared apartments, room rentals and locations near MRT stations. Foreign professionals usually need employer-sponsored permission, such as an Employment Pass, S Pass or Work Permit, depending on qualifications, salary and occupation; the employer normally submits the application. Short-term contract workers should confirm sponsorship, duration, medical requirements and benefits before accepting an offer. Bring certified qualifications where relevant, budget for deposits and healthcare, and check current Ministry of Manpower rules before relocating. Singapore’s tropical climate is hot and humid year-round, with frequent rain.
