• Maintaining and updating operational guidance and processes so they're always accurate and reflective of policy
• Partnering with product, risk, and change teams to design, test, and embed new controls and processes
• Creating readiness plans for new initiatives, defining success metrics, and ensuring safe delivery
• Collaborating with Learning & Development, Quality Assurance, and Comms teams to support training, coaching, and change readiness
• Delivering constructive feedback and action plans to improve quality, performance, and knowledge across FinCrime
• Supporting complex complaints investigations (including Financial Ombudsman Service escalations)
• Helping with hiring, onboarding, and delivering training sessions to grow expertise within the team

? We'd love to hear from you if...

• You have extensive subject matter expertise in Financial Crime with a strong understanding of policies and regulations
• You've led or supported complex financial crime investigations independently to resolution
• You're confident handling escalations and providing actionable feedback to a wide range of audiences
• You have experience delivering FinCrime technical training and coaching to identify and address trends
• You have previous experience working as liaison to Law Enforcement and government agencies
• You can balance deadlines and prioritise time-sensitive workloads effectively
• You're values-driven, collaborative, and comfortable working both independently and as part of a technical team
• Bonus points if you hold, or are working towards, a professional qualification in Anti Money Laundering (AML) (e.g. ICA Advanced Certificate, ACAMS)
• You might have fluency in MacOS, Slack, and GSuite tools. But if you don't hold these, we would still like to hear from you
