You will have excellent knowledge of risk operations and compliance processes and ensuring the management of these within a regulated financial services environment. With experience of reviewing policies and procedures to ensure alignment between 1LoD and 2LoD.

You will be competent managing stakeholders at a variety of levels recognising potential disparities in level of understanding of financial crime risk management with the ability to influence senior stakeholders on matters of policy and risk appetite.
