About us :

BVNK provides modern payment infrastructure for businesses. We unify banks and blockchains in a single platform. With BVNK, businesses can send and receive stablecoin payments, convert between currencies, and add stablecoin payments to their checkout. Using our flexible platform and robust global licensing and compliance expertise, innovators can launch new payment products quickly and compliantly.

We are a diverse team spread across EMEA, North America, and APAC, with a shared belief that all payment flows will interact with crypto in the coming decade, and BVNK will be at the forefront of this transformation of the financial system.

We recently secured a strategic investment from Visa through their Visa Ventures arm. This follows our $50 million Series B in December, led by Haun Ventures with participation from Coinbase Ventures, Scribble Ventures, DRW Venture Capital, Avenir, and Tiger Global. The continued confidence from these leading investors has enabled us to accelerate our growth trajectory, and we're looking for smart, ambitious people to help us build the next generation of payments.

We're incredibly honored to have made Newsweek's list of The Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces two years running (2023 and 2024) and to have been recognised by LinkedIn as one of the Top 20 Startups in the UK in 2024.

About this role in the team :

We are currently looking for both a Senior Fiat analyst & a Senior Crypto analyst to join our fast growing FCI team

As a Senior Financial Crime Intelligence Analyst, you'll play a key role in handling screening and transaction monitoring alerts to prevent bad actors from processing transactions through BVNK. You’ll also conduct in-depth analysis and thorough investigations to address complex and varied financial crime threats. You’ll be taking ownership of cases triggered by BVNK’s financial crime systems and controls, focussing on either BVNK’s fiat or cryptocurrency offerings, and mitigating financial crime risks for BVNK. If your role focuses on BVNK’s fiat offering, your cases will inevitably crossover with the world of digital assets and you’ll have the opportunity to support cutting-edge investigations on the blockchain.

This role will require flexible working hours, as the team covers the hours between 06 : 00 and 20 : 00 (GMT / BST). Occasionally, you may also be asked to cover weekend shifts on a rotation.

We are looking for a team player; someone who is adaptable and enjoys solving complex problems in a constantly changing environment. You must be adept at managing competing priorities, and work well in a highly demanding environment. You will be comfortable delivering high quality investigations at pace, and presenting your findings and recommendations to senior stakeholders.

As a Senior Financial Crime Intelligence Analyst, your day-to-day role will be varied, but will include tasks such as :

• Reviewing of sanctions and watchlist screening alerts on entities and individuals on relevant lists;
• Management of end-to-end financial crime investigations stemming from BVNK’s transaction monitoring system, payment screening tools, blockchain analytics provider, and other triggers;
• Receiving escalations from, and providing coaching to, more junior team members;
• Drafting of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) for submission to the relevant authorities;
• Working closely with colleagues responsible for BVNK’s transaction monitoring systems; identifying and testing changes to the rules in our transaction monitoring system;
• Seeking out and escalating opportunities to enhance BVNK’s control environment.
