The Role

We are looking for an AML Analyst, specialising in the payments industry, that will play a critical role in ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and mitigating risks associated with money laundering, fraud, and financial crime. Your primary responsibility will be to conduct thorough due diligence on new and existing customers, assess their risk profiles, and verify their identities and business activities as well as working on the creation and modification of policies and procedures, on the management of external audits and any other AML requirement.

This position requires a deep understanding of the local regulations that govern us, as well as payment industry regulations, strong analytical skills, and the ability to effectively collaborate with internal stakeholders to ensure compliance standards are met. You will hit the ground running on day one, and so we are looking for self-starters who relish that kind of challenge and pace in helping the business.

What you will do

• Conduct comprehensive KYC checks on new and existing customers, ensuring adherence to regulatory guidelines, and internal policies
• Review customer documentation, including merchant applications, financial statements, legal agreements, and beneficial ownership information, performing risk assessments based on established criteria
• Investigate and resolve any red flags, inconsistencies, or suspicious activities identified during the customer due diligence process
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams, such as Underwriting, Compliance, Legal and Risk, to obtain additional information or clarify discrepancies
• Stay updated on evolving local and payment industry regulations, card scheme rules, and best practices to ensure compliance with applicable standards
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of customer due diligence activities, including audit trails, risk assessments, and supporting documentation
• Work closely with members of the AML department at the local and global level to develop, maintain, and improve policies and procedures, controls, metrics, and activity monitoring. Report potential cases of money laundering or suspicious activities
• Work with the Regional Compliance Manager to develop all tools, documents, reports, or any other activities required from a regulatory standpoint, ensuring compliance with the company's obligations.
• Provide training and support to other team members on AML processes, industry requirements, and emerging trends
