Imagine you can help fight money laundering (AML) and terrorism financing (CTF) in your role as a Transaction Monitoring AML/CTF Expert. You combine expert knowledge with insights from data to create smart logic which is integrated in cutting edge technology to detect unusual transactions from the millions of transactions that the bank processes every day. To fulfil this mission, you work together in close collaboration with data scientists and other experts within and outside of your team.

You and your job

As a Transaction Monitoring AML/CTF Expert you propose improvements to our AML/CTF transaction monitoring system. You make sure these improvements and their expected implications are clearly described in well-motivated and convincing proposals. You get to take ownership for your proposals throughout the process of design, alignment with stakeholders, and implementation to make sure your improvements go live in our model. Building and maintaining sustainable working relationships with your stakeholders and involving them at the right moments helps you achieve results.

Your expert knowledge is essential when you identify and initiate development of new rules, optimize existing rules, and identify which rules have become redundant and should be discontinued. You also advise internally on risk mitigation within transaction profiles of our customers.

Close collaboration with data scientists in the team is key in this position. They help you retrieve insights from the data which you combine with information from e.g. SIRA coverage assessments, backtesting and tuning reports, (new) legislation and guidelines, and latest developments on e.g. modus operandi from internal and external research. Your knowledge and skills help us achieve the strategic transaction monitoring goals of the bank.
