We’re looking for a dedicated Financial Crime (FinCrime) Reporting Specialist to join our FinCrime Reporting team. This role is a unique opportunity to have an impact on Wise’s mission and grow as a specialist in financial crime. Fluency in Portuguese (both written and verbal) is essential for this role, as you'll be working with cases and documentation in the language on a daily basis. Your mission is to protect our customers and Wise by reporting suspicious activity.

We are looking for individuals who are passionate about financial crime risk and keen working in a fast paced and rapidly growing fintech environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Review and Analyse: Review customer accounts and transaction patterns for unusual or suspicious activity, identify potential red flags related to money laundering, fraud, or other financial crimes.

• Continuous Learning: Participate in training sessions and remain knowledgeable about emerging trends and tools in financial crime detection.

Qualifications:

• Language Skills: Fluency in both Portuguese and English is required, with excellent writing and speaking abilities in both languages.

• Experience: Previous experience in a financial crime-related field (AML, fraud detection) is a plus, but not required. We are open to candidates who are highly detail-oriented, willing to learn and have transferable skills.

• Strong Attention to Detail: Ability to handle routine tasks with high accuracy and maintain consistency in work product, even under pressure.

• Analytical Skills: Ability to analyze financial transactions, identify patterns, and make informed decisions based on regulatory requirements and risk factors.

• Communication Skills: Strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly for drafting clear, detailed reports.

• Time Management: Ability to work effectively under tight deadlines and manage multiple priorities with precision and accuracy.
