Stay Ahead: Develop knowledge of criminal methods and AML typologies, applying these insights to critically challenge investigation analysis.
Collaborate and Innovate: Participate in proactive investigative projects, engage with external partners, and support regulatory inquiries.
What We're Looking For:
Analytical Prowess: Strong investigative skills and an analytical mindset with proven problem-solving abilities.
Adaptability: Ability to prioritize competing demands, organize your agenda, and thrive under pressure.
Attention to Detail: Critically review work submitted by peers, ensuring accuracy and risk assessment.
Relationship Builder: Excellent relationship management skills to engage with peers and senior stakeholders.
Team Player: Ability to work collaboratively and share knowledge with the team.
Communication Skills: Strong oral and written communication skills.
Technical Proficiency: Intermediate to advanced proficiency in Excel, with experience handling large volumes of quantitative data.
Preferred Qualifications:

Industry Experience: Experience in AML, financial crimes, finance industry, financial regulation, law enforcement, or intelligence analysis.
Risk Assessment Expertise: Demonstrated skills in risk assessment and decision-making regarding ML/TF risk.
Tech-Savvy: Experience with visualization, robotic, and data automation software (e.g., Alteryx, Python, Tableau, UiPath, or Xceptor) is a plus.
