The ideal candidate will have some experience within Compliance, financial crime, administration or wider financial services, although specialist financial crime experience isn't essential if you have a genuine willingness to learn. You'll ideally have some awareness of AML/CFT/CPF, sanctions, CDD, EDD, client risk assessments, screening and suspicious activity reporting, or be motivated to develop this knowledge. Strong organisation, accuracy and attention to detail are essential, together with professional communication skills, discretion and the ability to manage competing priorities. You'll be confident using Microsoft Office and comfortable learning screening, CRM and case management systems. A relevant professional qualification would be beneficial but isn't required.
