Location: London (Hybrid – 2 days per week in office)

Join a dynamic and forward-thinking Financial Crime Compliance team within a leading accountancy practice, where you'll play a vital role in the broader risk management framework by supporting the new client onboarding function.

Reporting directly to the Financial Crime Manager, you will be responsible for completing and reviewing KYC and CDD processes to ensure new clients meet the organisation’s risk standards. While full training will be provided on internal systems, policies, and procedures, the successful candidate will be expected to support junior team members and should already be proficient in:

• Completing new client due diligence procedures and risk assessments
• Conducting third-party research and analysis to verify client identities and assess risk
• Documenting and validating KYC information in line with regulatory requirements
• Liaising with internal stakeholders and client-facing teams to gather missing or non-public information
• Executing ongoing monitoring procedures and escalating cases where necessary

Requirements:

The team are looking for someone with prior experience in client onboarding or CDD, ideally within the accountancy, legal, or professional services sectors. You will bring a proactive mindset and the ability to work independently while supporting others. The ideal candidate will also:

• Be enthusiastic about personal and team development
• Have strong analytical and critical thinking skills – able to assess nuanced situations
• Deliver high-quality work with great attention to detail
• Be adaptable and calm under pressure when things don’t go to plan
• Be comfortable navigating ambiguity in a regulated environment
