  • Maintain thorough records of all AML/CTF activities, reports, and investigations in accordance with ADGM and FSRA requirements. Ensure all documentation is complete, accurate, and easily accessible for audits.
  • Manage the firms transaction monitoring systems to ensure alignment with regulatory expectations. Conduct regular reviews of these systems and recommend improvements to mitigate emerging risks.
  • Conduct internal audits and periodic compliance reviews to assess the effectiveness of the compliance framework. Identify areas for improvement and implement necessary changes.

Job Requirements:

  • A minimum of 10 years of experience in compliance and MLRO and/or AML/CTF roles, ideally within the financial services or cryptocurrency sectors. Experience with Category 3A regulated activities is preferred.
  • Bachelors degree in finance, business, law, or a related field. Professional certifications in compliance or AML (e.g., CAMS, ICA) are highly desirable.
  • Strong understanding of ADGM regulations, particularly those related to Category 3A licensing, digital assets, and AML/CTF legislation.
  • Proven experience conducting regulatory audits, risk assessments, and compliance reviews. High attention to detail and the ability to analyze complex data and situations.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively with internal teams and external stakeholders.
  • Proficient in using compliance and AML/CTF monitoring software and tools. Familiarity with KYC, CDD, and EDD processes for digital asset transactions.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
