Job Description
Automation Risk
This role contains a mix of routine (record-keeping, documentation) and augmented (CDD, transaction monitoring, report drafting) tasks, with some tasks requiring human judgment and stakeholder interaction. While AI and RegTech tools can automate or assist with many processes, the need for contextual decision-making, regulatory interpretation, and interpersonal communication keeps full automation risk moderate. However, exposure to AI augmentation is high due to the text- and data-heavy nature of the work.
Task analysis
- Conduct and document Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) reviews for new and existing clients.
- Perform ongoing transaction monitoring and review for suspicious activity, escalating potential issues as required.
- Prepare and submit Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) and other regulatory filings in accordance with internal and external requirements.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date AML/KYC records and documentation for audit and regulatory review.
- Interpret and apply changes in AML regulations and internal policies to business procedures.
- Liaise with internal and external stakeholders to resolve AML/KYC queries and provide guidance.
- Support and participate in internal and external AML audits and regulatory inspections.
- Train and mentor junior staff on AML processes and regulatory changes.
