A rapidly growing, Electronic Money Institution (EMI) based in London, are looking to add a Transaction Monitoring Analyst to join their Compliance team. A forward-thinking company redefining how value is stored and exchanged. As an alternative to traditional fiat systems, they provide a secure, efficient, and borderless financial solution built for the digital economy. As they scale operations, they’re strengthening their financial crime defences and investing in compliance excellence. This is a great opportunity to join a values-led firm where you can make a real impact.

The Role

Reporting directly to the Head of Compliance, the Transaction Monitoring Analyst will play a vital role in identifying and escalating suspicious activity, contributing to the firm’s AML/CTF risk framework and continuous improvement of their transaction monitoring controls.

This is a hands-on role that requires sector-specific experience, a strong analytical mindset, and a passion for financial crime prevention.

Key Responsibilities

* Review and investigate alerts from the firm’s transaction monitoring systems, identifying unusual or potentially suspicious activity.
* Conduct in-depth investigations using internal data and open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools.
* Draft clear, well-reasoned internal SARs for review and escalation.
* Work closely with the Head of Compliance to fine-tune transaction monitoring rules and support system enhancements.
* Monitor high-risk client activity and escalate potential red flags.
* Maintain meticulous records and ensure audit readiness.
* Contribute to broader AML/CTF and financial crime initiatives within the team.

Candidate Profile

* 3+ years of hands-on experience in transaction monitoring, ideally within an EMI, fintech, payments firm, or MSB.
* Strong understanding of UK Money Laundering Regulations, JMLSG guidance, and FCA expectations.
* Familiarity with transaction monitoring systems (e.g., Flagright, ComplyAdvantage, LexisNexis, or similar).
* Confident using OSINT techniques to support investigations.
* Excellent analytical skills and professional judgement.
* Strong written communication skills – able to write clear, concise case files and reports.
* Self-starter who can manage caseloads with accuracy and attention to detail.
* Comfortable working in a fast-paced, growth-oriented environment.
