A bit about you:
Expertise. You have over 4 years of working experience under your belt, including at least 1 year of experience in the AML Investigations and/or AML Reporting space and are working / have worked as an agent in other Fincrime domains (e.g. Fraud, Verification, Surveillance). Experience in assurance testing is not mandatory but is definitely a plus.
Communication. You can identify the key points and communicate these clearly, both in informal Slack messages, formal reports and verbally in meetings.
Industry focus. You have an interest in AML & fraud risks and controls (including KYC, fraud, sanctions and transaction monitoring), and you’re keen to learn more about CMT/assurance methodologies.
Get the job done. You’re comfortable working with a high degree of autonomy and managing evolving priorities to deliver against the team’s strategy.
Travel. You will be based in Tallinn together with a number of other CMT colleagues, but you’ll also work with our colleagues in other locations. You’ll be ready to travel occasionally in order to meet your objectives.
This role is right for you if:
You love to fix broken processes;
You like things well organised and neatly documented;
You won't settle for the quick, already made and easy solution;
You stand for making things right;
You enjoy reading regulations, especially if related to Financial Crime prevention.

Wise Offices
Hybrid Workspace
Employees engage in a combination of remote and on-site work.
We expect new joiners in the office most days to build connections and learn from colleagues for their first six months. After that, most Wisers split their working week between the office and home, typically coming in at least 12 times a month.
