AML Analyst

Job Description

This role offers the chance to work closely with legal teams, support firmwide risk management, and contribute to robust AML practices across the organisation. The successful candidate will develop hands-on experience in compliance, gain exposure to diverse risk activities, and play an integral part in maintaining strong regulatory standards.

Key Responsibilities:

• Monitor UK AML legislation, sanctions guidance, and professional regulatory updates, helping ensure firmwide compliance.
• Support onboarding checks, review client and matter risk assessments, analyse transactions, and advise on Source of Funds / Source of Wealth requirements.
• Identify gaps, inconsistencies, or issues in AML information and escalate where appropriate.
• Assist with reviewing, updating, and improving AML procedures to strengthen internal controls.
• Contribute to compliance training and maintain accessible, up-to-date information on internal platforms.
• Carry out research on emerging regulatory trends and assist with system enhancements and process improvement projects.
• Work effectively across all departments, providing clear and consistent AML guidance to colleagues.

The ideal candidate will have a background in Law, Business, Finance, or a related field, with developing or existing knowledge of UK AML regulations. They will bring strong analytical skills, excellent attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities, alongside clear communication, and effective collaboration. Experience with compliance tools, data analysis, or process mapping is helpful but not essential, and a proactive, willing-to-learn attitude is key.

The firm provides a strong benefits package and hybrid working, along with extensive training and development opportunities to support long-term career growth.
