The Role
Here's what you'll own day to day:
- Building and maintaining data pipelines to surface financial crime trends, anomalies, and emerging risks

- Interpreting trends across regions and recommending meaningful business actions
- Maintaining and coordinating governance frameworks consistently across the organisation

You'll need to bring:
- 5+ years in data analytics and internal controls within a financial crime or risk management environment
- A solid grasp of AML, CTF, sanctions, fraud, and related financial crime regulations
