  • 24-month max term contract
  • Role can be based in Sydney (Parramatta), Adelaide, Melbourne or Gold Coast 
  • Full-time role (Monday-Friday) 

How will I help?

The Financial Crime Surveillance (FCS) team is part of Westpac’s Risk Division and is responsible for detecting, deterring and fighting financial crime. This role is part of the first line of defence for financial crime related risks such as anti-money laundering, sanctions, KYC and customer due diligence. 

As a Senior Financial Crime Analyst, you’ll bring your analytical skills and industry expertise to not only handle investigations but also to support and mentor other analysts. Your role will be crucial in maintaining the integrity of our financial crime prevention efforts, stepping in as a key delegate for managers, and ensuring that all cases are managed with the highest level of professionalism.

Your day to day will look like:  

  • Advanced Investigations: Perform sophisticated financial crime analysis, using your expertise to uncover and address suspicious activities.
  • Team Support: Serve as a primary resource for analysts, offering guidance and assistance on complex cases.
  • Coaching: Conduct peer reviews to ensure the quality and accuracy of investigative work performed by your team.
  • Managerial Delegation: Act as the key delegate in the absence of managers, ensuring that operations continue smoothly and efficiently.
  • Reporting Assistance: Support the preparation and management of reporting requests to meet organizational and regulatory requirements.

What’s in it for me?

  • Flexible Work Schedule: Monday to Friday with flexible start and finish times. 
  • Hybrid Work Environment: Start with full-time in-office work for the first couple of months, then transition to a hybrid working model (3 days in the office, 2 days working from home). 
  • Dynamic Work: No two cases are the same, offering you a stimulating and varied work experience.
  • Supportive Culture: Access to resources and guidance from a supportive team. 
  • Professional growth: Grow your skillset within financial crime while also contributing to the development of team members. 

You’ll play a significant part of the future of a business that has been around for over 200 years. Our purpose is to create better futures together. So, we’ll back you in the development of your career, internal career prospects, and flexible working. You’ll also keep learning to grow your career, backed by a fantastic team of people with a can-do, supportive structure. Whatever shape your family takes, we offer generous paid and unpaid parental leave for your nominated primary and support carers. This includes leave to organise adoptions, surrogacy, and foster care arrangements. And we continue to pay your super contributions while you take all the time you need to get your new family settled.

What do I need?

  • Experience within banking or financial services.
  • You will bring at least 3 years’ experience within Financial Crime. 
  • Experience in coaching, training or mentoring team members will be highly regarded. 
  • Proven ability to conduct thorough and systematic investigations into financial crime, including gathering and analysing evidence and preparing details reports.
  • Investigative mindset and strong analytical skills. 
  • Critical thinking and the ability to interpret information and make decisions.
  • Comfortable working independently and managing your own case load.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills.
  • Computer literacy with ability to work with multiple systems with ease. 

What’s it like to work there?  

We are a collaborative team of passionate people with a shared vision to make a difference for our customers, our communities and each other. At Westpac, making a difference means creating impact, unlocking our own and each other’s passions, and transformative success stories to create better futures together.

We’ll empower you to shape your career path.  Through personalised upskilling, mentoring, and training opportunities, you’re in control of where you start and how you’ll grow.
