FinCrime Officer

The Role

We are looking for a FinCrime Officer to join our growing FinCrime team. You will support the Global FinCrime Team in onboarding new customers to the business and reviewing AML risks. This role is the first step in a FinCrime career and is a great fit for you if you have strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills. The role will involve evening and weekend shifts to give the best service possible to our global customer base. The shifts will be 9am-5:30pm Monday - Sunday and will also include evening shifts which will be 12pm-8:30pm. Whilst in your training, you'll be required to be on-site 5 days a week. After training and once competent in the role, the requirement will be 3 days in the office and 2 working from home. 

We're ideally looking for FinCrime Officers with experience however, if you don't have the experience but have the willingness to learn then we want to hear from you. We'll onboard you as our Junior FinCrime Officer to start and we will provide you with the tools, and training to help you progress within your role. 

Responsibilities 

• Conduct KYC and KYB checks as part of our customer due diligence requirements
• Review of PEPs/Sanction/Adverse Media hits identified through our third party tool to make sure we know which customers present a higher risk to the business
• Sound judgment and confidence to make independent decisions on potential unusual activity or PEP/Sanction matches
• Ability to assess referred cases to ensure minimal inconvenience to the customer while preventing monetary and reputational loss to the company

What do we require 

• You should have an interest in Financial Crime and AML and a willingness to learn the regulatory landscape and criminal techniques in more detail
• Cases won’t always fit into neatly defined criteria and so you’ll need to be confident in your ability to make best-judgement decisions and be able to communicate these effectively to both your team members, customers and other teams in the business
• You should have a critical eye and strong attention to detail. You should enjoy working efficiently and in a demanding, high volume environment.
• You should have experience in working across multiple platforms, ideally in a financial services environment - even if that’s not directly in a FinCrime or KYC role.

💷 £26,000 - £30,000 (Depending on experience)
