  • Identify and investigate suspicious behavior, abuse, fraudulent activity, or attempts to bypass internal systems.

  • Communicate with clients and internal departments when clarifications or supporting documentation is required.

  • Apply internal restrictions to accounts when necessary and escalate high-risk or complex cases.

  • Monitor transactions that exceed predefined thresholds and assist in preparing case summaries.

  • Assist in enforcing internal controls such as transaction monitoring, velocity checks, and abuse flags.

  • Collaborate closely with the Dealing, Support, and Compliance teams to ensure effective risk mitigation.

Requirements
  • 1–2 years of experience in an AML, Compliance, Fraud, or Back Office function, preferably within the Forex or CFD industry.

  • Solid understanding of KYC/AML procedures and regulatory requirements.

  • Proven experience in reviewing client activity, including withdrawals, trading behavior, and deposit history.

  • Strong communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills, especially under pressure during time-sensitive reviews.

  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, shift-based environment, including weekend coverage as per schedule.

  • Fluent in English (written and spoken); additional languages are an advantage.

  • Ability to handle sensitive data with discretion, integrity, and professionalism.

Ideal Candidate Profile

We are looking for someone who:

  • Has a keen eye for detail and enjoys identifying patterns, inconsistencies, or suspicious behavior.

  • Takes ownership of tasks, works independently, and knows when to escalate issues.

  • Is discreet and trustworthy, capable of handling confidential financial data and investigations.

  • Understands the importance of response time, especially in fraud or urgent cases.

  • Is a quick learner, adaptable to internal systems and comfortable with CRM platforms.

  • Has a genuine interest in AML, financial crime prevention, and compliance.

  • Thrives in team environments and actively shares relevant information across departments.
