- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to enhance AML monitoring systems, tools, and technologies for improved detection and prevention of suspicious activities
- Support investigations of alerts generated by our transaction monitoring systems, analysis of customer transactions, accounts, and activities to identify and prevent potential money laundering and fraudulent activities
- Perform sample-checks on end user KYC data and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements
- Ensure compliance with PEP/ Sanctions guidelines
- Own annual reassessment procedures for all end users
- Conduct periodic risk assessments and reviews of existing AML processes, identifying gaps and recommending necessary enhancements or modifications

- Support AML Team in regularly updating OPS team on new process and working instructions
- Support Ops Team in launching requests for information for Clients and End Users
- Maintain up-to-date knowledge of AML laws, regulations, and industry standards, incorporating any necessary changes into the company's AML framework
- Produce accurate reports and documentation to demonstrate compliance with regulatory obligations

**Qualifications**,** among others:

- Bachelor's degree; relevant certifications (e.g., CAMS, CFCS) are a plus.
- A minimum of 5 years of experience in KYC/ AML Operations within the financial services industry, with a strong understanding of AML laws, regulations, and compliance requirements
- Proficient in utilising KYC/ AML monitoring tools and systems, with demonstrated experience in analysing complex data sets to identify suspicious activities
- Proven ability to set up new team structures and lead more junior team members
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and senior management
- Strong attention to detail and analytical skills, with the ability to make sound judgments and decisions in high-pressure situations

- We're working on solving a hard problem: fixing the European securities financial infrastructure that empowers more people to be able to invest. You have the opportunity to contribute to this change.
- We invest in you. From access to a personal coach, development budget and plenty of opportunities to grow in your role.
- We take hiring seriously with a strong focus on keeping a high bar when interviewing (equally important is that we hire decent people, who are passionate about their craft and helping us achieve our shared mission).
- While we're not quite fully-remote, we are committed to being a flexible employer, as we understand you don't have to be in the office to do your best work.
- We live a culture of empowerment, trust (that we hire the best people and get out of their way) and openness (there's a greater advantage in sharing information than keeping it to ourselves).

**Our values**:

- **Learn and grow. **We aim high to shape our future. We give and request honest feedback knowing that we develop together. Progression over Perfection.
- **Team first. **We make it easy for others. We value our differences and are open to others' opinions. We win and celebrate together Team over Egos.
