The Senior Manager for Global Sanctions and Anti-Bribery & Corruption ("AB&C") will be responsible for overseeing the Advisory, Policy, and Investigation functions of Western Union's Sanctions and AB&C program for Asia Pacific and Middle East regions, providing key regulatory guidance to the first line of defense teams, including business leads and operations. The role will also be responsible for assessing new product offerings and go-to market plans for their region to advise on minimum standards and compliance controls which would be required to ensure that Western Union meets its regulatory obligations in the jurisdictions in which we operate, as well as our Policy requirements. As part of their function, the Senior Manager will also be responsible for the continued development of the Policies and Procedures which govern the Sanctions & AB&C program, as well as the regional implementation of the Policy and enforcement of the minimum standards. The Senior Manager will report to the Director of Global Sanctions Advisory & Policy and will work closely with the Director of Global Anti-Bribery & Corruption and the Regional Compliance leads for Asia Pacific and Middle East.

  • Act as a subject matter expert and point of escalation for the Regional Compliance team on all Sanctions and AB&C matters.
  • Provide advice to the first line of defense in ensuring that sanctions risks are assessed in relation to changes to systems, new product implementation, digital wallet customer onboarding, and any other new relevant projects;
  • Review and challenge the global sanctions risk assessment to ensure that they appropriately reflect Western Union's inherent risk, as well as any potential controls or deficiencies which would impact the Western Union's overall risk rating.
  • Support the Regional Compliance teams, Legal and the Director of Global Sanctions Advisory & Policy and Director of AB&C with regulator outreach, including but not limited to requests for clarification, disclosures, complex licensing requests, and potential conflict of law matters.
  • Assist the Head of Sanctions Screening in the review of screening controls and procedures related to new products, specifically those linked with Western Union's digital bank and digital money transfer channels.
  • Represent Global Sanctions and AB&C on internal calls with senior business leads and executive management, as required.
  • Keep up to date on regulatory developments in the jurisdictions in which Western Union operates, through both internal engagement with country MLROs and participation in external industry forums and meetings on changes which may impact the business.
  • Provide advice and guidance to other areas of the wider Enterprise Risk & Compliance team in relation to sanctions and AB&C requirements and regulatory expectations, as needed.
  • Support in the development, review and delivery of sanctions and AB&C-related training, including both global sanctions training, regional-specific training, and ad-hoc upskilling as required.

Role Requirements

  • Minimum 7 years' experience working as a subject matter expert in Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) regulations, as well as knowledge of non-U.S. sanctions regulations and financial crime regulations related to the financial services sector;
  • Strong working knowledge of AB&C laws, regulations, and regulatory requirements, in particular US FCPA and UK Bribery Act.
  • Prior experience working with OFAC or other international sanctions enforcement agency.
  • Experience working in financial crimes compliance at a financial institution or digital bank with a significant global footprint.
  • Prior experience drafting and/or reviewing regulatory filings and disclosures to a supervisory authority or sanctions enforcement agency required.
