We have partnered with a top offshore law firm who are looking to bring in a Senior Compliance Analyst to their office in London.
The work is principally focused on anti-money laundering (AML), counter terrorist financing ("CTF") and sanctions compliance for new entities. Whilst focusing on High-Risk Jurisdictions and interesting compliance work.
Applicants will have 2/3 years of legal risk and compliance experience within a law firm. Whilst having exposure to AML/Financial Crime work.
Some of your responsibilities:
* Identifying and verifying new entities along with their ownership and control to assess AML/CTF and sanctions risks and determine applicable Customer Due Diligence ("CDD") requirements.
* Conduct screening to identify politically exposed persons (PEPs), sanctions issues and other regulatory and reputational risks.
* Conduct and review risk assessments to ensure that the appropriate risk rating is assigned to clients and matters and that proper escalation to senior management is triggered in high-risk scenarios.
