Join a top-tier US law firm with one of the strongest London benches. You’ll be part of a lean, high-impact AML team that partners closely with fee-earners on complex, multi-jurisdictional matters. Expect genuine ownership, real career growth, and the opportunity to help shape global AML processes for the firm. Reporting to the Global AML & Compliance Manager within the OGC, you’ll run end-to-end AML due diligence and risk assessments across high-value, cross-border matters. This is a hands-on role with visibility, variety, and influence. What you’ll do • Conduct AML research and client/matter risk assessments, liaising with fee-earners to gather CDD/KYC. • Perform PEP, sanctions and adverse media screening; identify and escalate red flags. • Draft and circulate clear, concise client/matter risk summaries. • Maintain and update AML systems and databases; monitor open files and complete periodic reviews. • Carry out Risk Officer Reviews and approvals. • Support team knowledge: help develop AML/CTF/sanctions expertise, guidance, and processes globally. • Pitch in on ad-hoc projects and be flexible for occasional out-of-hours needs when workloads spike. What you’ll bring • Ideally 3 years’ AML/sanctions experience in a global law firm environment. • Solid knowledge of AML/CTF/sanctions obligations across Europe and Asia. • Proven CDD on entities (companies, funds, partnerships) and individuals. • Sharp research skills (internet, databases), and confident with Microsoft Office. • Exceptional written and verbal communication; able to build trust across stakeholders. • Calm under pressure, collaborative, discreet, and relentlessly detail-driven. Why this firm? • Elite matters, blue-chip client base, and genuine seat at the table on global AML process design. • Collegiate culture, cutting-edge tech and a modern, sustainable London office. • A small, senior team where your impact is visible and progression is real.
