About the role
As a Financial Crimes Investigative Analyst at Australian Retirement Trust, you'll play a crucial role in protecting our members and organisation from financial crime. You'll investigate suspicious activities, analyse data for emerging threats, and support complex cases with senior team members. Your work will involve reviewing forensic reports, identifying patterns, and recommending improvements to our controls and systems. Collaboration is key, as you'll work across teams, contribute to strategic projects, and help deliver training to strengthen our compliance culture. This role offers opportunities to engage with industry forums, stay ahead of regulatory trends, and represent ART in key initiatives. You'll drive continuous improvement, influence change, and make a real impact on our risk management framework.
Day to day, you'll:
- Assess and investigate suspicious matter reports, internal referrals, and external escalations related to financial crime.
- Perform daily reviews of forensic reports, fraud detection scenarios, and system-generated alerts.
- Identify patterns, anomalies, and emerging threats using data-driven insights.
- Assist with complex investigations, including evidence gathering and stakeholder engagement.
- Review and assess high-risk transactions and AML/CTF-related business queries.
- Recommend and support implementation of control improvements following investigations.
- Collaborate on enhancements to transaction monitoring systems and detection logic.
- Support the delivery of financial crime training and awareness programs across the business.
This role is a permanent opportunity based in Brisbane, Sydney or Melbourne.
About you
It goes without saying you'll be a great communicator with top notch interpersonal skills. We'll also expect you to pick up problems and come up with quick, creative ways to solve them. It's quite likely you tick some of the following boxes too:
- Experience in financial services, with a strong understanding of financial crime risks.
- Skilled in investigations, evidence gathering, and case analysis.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a keen eye for patterns and anomalies.
- Confident communicator with excellent written and verbal presentation skills.
- Ability to manage stakeholders and influence change across teams.
- Knowledge of, or willingness to learn, AML/CTF and fraud detection techniques.
- Comfortable working with data, forensic systems, and transaction monitoring tools.
- Proactive, adaptable, and able to work both independently and as part of a team.
- Committed to upholding integrity, compliance, and ethical conduct.
- Tertiary qualifications in a relevant field (desirable but not essential).
