Application Deadline: 17 July 2026
Department: Legal & Compliance

We are looking for a A KYC (Know Your Customer) Analyst who is a compliance professional responsible for verifying the identities of clients, assessing their financial risk, and ensuring that a financial institution adheres to anti-money laundering (AML) and regulatory requirements.
Location: remote from the US. Preferably, Florida, but not a must.
Key Responsibilities
- Customer Due Diligence (CDD) & Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD): Performing thorough investigations on new and existing clients to verify identity, ownership structures, and business activities. This includes executing EDD for high-risk clients.
- Risk Assessment & Screening: Conducting background checks, including screening against sanctions lists, Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs), and adverse media to identify potential financial crime risks.
- Documentation & Reporting: Gathering and reviewing supporting documentation (passports, incorporation papers, financial statements) to ensure compliance with internal policies and external laws. Analysts document their findings and report suspicious activities to compliance officers or regulatory bodies.
- Stakeholder Collaboration: Acting as a subject matter expert to provide guidance to Front Office, Sales, or Relationship Management teams regarding compliance requirements, onboarding status, and documentation needs.
- Policy Development: Helping improve internal controls, workflows, and automated reporting systems to increase the efficiency and accuracy of the onboarding process.
- Technical Knowledge: Strong understanding of AML/KYC regulations (e.g., BSA, USA Patriot Act, OFAC, FINRA) and financial crime risk frameworks.
- Analytical Abilities: High attention to detail and the ability to interpret complex financial data to identify anomalies or trends.
- Communication: Excellent verbal and written skills, as the role involves liaising with clients, internal teams, and management regarding sensitive compliance matters.
- Research Expertise: Proficient in using external databases, company registries, and research tools (e.g., World-Check, Dow Jones, Dun & Bradstreet) to verify client information.
- Education & Experience: Bachelor's degree in Finance, Business, or Accounting, often with 2–5 years of relevant experience in compliance or financial services. Certifications such as the Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) are preferred.
