Job description
What if you could be able to contribute to iBanFirst protecting itself? That you could investigate signals and alerts that could prevent financial terrorism, money laundering, fraud, and sanctions? Being an international payment provider goes hand in hand with a lot of risks for our company itself. Therefore, our team of Transaction Monitoring Analysts is accurate, acting on an integer basis and monitoring suspicious financial activity. As part of this team, you will be operating as the first line of defense!
What does the role look like?
You will be engaged in critically analyzing transactions to identify deviations in transaction patterns, defined business activities, or behavior. You will review and assess whether you consider a transaction to be unusual and avoid sanction regulations, fraud, and money laundering. This is done by keeping the laws and regulations in mind for every specific country of origin of the client and data from internal systems. You know how to do client research and collect and link information in an effective way. Based on the information you will come up with the conclusion: reporting to compliance or not?
You proactively think along about efficiency improvements beyond the boundaries of your own tasks and responsibilities. You will be triggered to go out of your comfort zone and write with us on the success story by saving iBanFirst to keep the financial landscape safe by protecting it from integrity risks.
