  • Assist in both internal and external audits and reviews.
  • Mentor and support staff in developing new skills, fostering a growth mindset.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in Financial Crime, Regulatory Compliance, or Financial Systems, including direct interaction with auditors and regulators.
  • Strong expertise in statistical and data concepts, with hands-on experience applying them in a financial crime context.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to convey complex issues clearly and concisely to non-technical audiences.
  • Strong problem-solving and prioritisation skills, with the ability to manage conflicting issues professionally and effectively influence stakeholders.
  • Advanced data management and manipulation skills, including proficiency in Excel, SQL, SAS, Python, and Machine Learning, along with experience in technology governance and process management for deploying financial crime detection solutions.
