Position : Senior Compliance Specialist (AML Auditor)


What will you do? 

1. Audit Planning & Strategy

  • Develop Annual Audit Plans: Establish risk-based annual or quarterly AML internal audit plans.
  • Define Scope and Frequency: Determine sampling ratios and inspection cycles for various operations (e.g., high-risk customers, suspicious transaction alerts) based on Risk-Based Approach (RBA) principles.
  • Develop Audit Frameworks: Design standardized audit checklists and Quality Assurance (QA) metrics to ensure objectivity and consistency across all reviews.

2. Continuous Testing & Sampling

  • Independent Retrospective Review: Conduct back-testing on completed cases from the 1st line (Business) and 2nd line (AML Operations), including KYC onboarding, Periodic Reviews (CDD/EDD), and Transaction Monitoring alerts.
  • Compliance Verification: Validate whether operational procedures strictly adhere to internal SOPs and the latest regulatory updates.
  • System Effectiveness Testing: Periodically verify the accuracy of sanction screening systems and monitoring models to ensure there are no systemic failures or tuning biases.

3. Reporting & Remediation Tracking

  • Audit Reporting: Compile audit findings into formal reports, highlighting trend analysis and root cause identification for recurring errors.
  • Follow-up & Remediation: Track the progress of "Audit Findings," oversee the implementation of corrective actions by relevant departments, and verify the effectiveness of these improvements.
  • Management Reporting: Report the health of the AML control environment to the Head of Compliance or the Board of Directors on a regular basis.

4. Process Optimization & Advisory

  • Professional Recommendations: Propose enhancements to existing AML SOPs based on audit results to bridge identified "Control Gaps."
  • Regulatory Readiness: Conduct internal "Mock Audits" prior to inspections by regulators or external auditors to mitigate compliance risks.

5. Communication & Collaboration

  • Stakeholder Management: Maintain professional communication with the AML Operations team to discuss audit disputes and coordinate with external auditors or regulators during examinations.

  • 3–5 years of experience in internal auditing, compliance testing, AML review, or financial controls, preferably within banking or financial services.
  • Strong understanding of audit methodologies, including risk assessment, sampling techniques, control testing, and documentation standards.
  • Experience in AML/Compliance domains such as KYC, CDD/EDD, transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, or QA review is highly desirable.
  • Demonstrated ability to evaluate control design and operating effectiveness, identify gaps, and provide clear, evidence‑based audit findings.
  • Highly organized with strong analytical, critical‑thinking, and problem‑solving skills, with meticulous attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Ability to work independently while managing multiple reviews simultaneously and meeting deadlines in a fast‑paced environment.
