The role
An e-money institution in the City is expanding its financial crime team as transaction volumes grow and the regulatory expectation grows with them. This is a hands-on analyst role rather than a policy one.
The work covers transaction monitoring alert review and escalation, enhanced due diligence on higher-risk customers, sanctions screening investigation and the preparation of suspicious activity reports for the MLRO. You would also feed back into tuning the monitoring rules, which the team has real influence over.
The team is nine people and growing. Two days a week in the office, three from home.
What you will need
Two or more years in a financial crime, AML or transaction monitoring role
Experience reviewing and escalating monitoring alerts at volume
Drafted suspicious activity reports for MLRO review
Working knowledge of the UK money laundering regulations and JMLSG guidance
Sanctions screening experience and an understanding of what a true match requires
Clear written English, since much of the output is written analysis
ICA or ACAMS qualification, or a willingness to work towards one
What is on offer
Salary of £48,000 to £58,000 depending on experience
Three days a week from home
Annual bonus of up to 10%
Fully funded ICA or ACAMS qualification
Private medical cover
25 days holiday plus bank holidays, with the option to buy five more
