Compliance, AML Officer

Nicosia, Nicosia, Cyprus Emerald Zebra Full time €30,000 - €48,000 per year


You could be leading the entire compliance and AML function hands-on in a high-trust family office that values initiative, autonomy, and end-to-end ownership.

This isn't a tick the box role in a rigid, siloed structure.
Its the opposite. We are seeking a compliance officer with junior to mid level experience, preferably within a fiduciary, corporate services or family office environment. 

What's the setup?

A long-established, privately owned family office in Nicosia, Cyprus. A small (but seriously senior) team of ~7 who cover corporate governance, accounting, compliance, and investment coordination all for internal group companies. No third-party clients. No flashy titles. Just high standards and meaningful work.

If you've come from corporate services, fiduciary, or a professional services firm, you'll understand the rhythm but here, you'll finally get the breadth you've been looking for.

What you'll actually be doing:
  • Leading all AML & compliance for the group you're the go-to, not the assistant.
  • Running KYC/due diligence processes and keeping documentation investor-grade.
  • Preparing AML risk assessments and keeping tabs on multi-jurisdictional shifts.
  • Liaising with banks, advisors, and regulators directly not through layers.
  • Owning onboarding and account-opening with banks (nothing outsourced).
  • Managing regulatory reporting (you'll have structure, not bureaucracy).
  • Keeping everyone updated on changes in legislation and internal policies.
  • Ensuring archives, KYC records, and corporate files are audit-ready, always.
  • You'll work closely with all departments, especially the accounting and corporate teams this is a flat, collaborative environment.
What's in it for you?
  • Real ownership no micromanagement, no 'just review this' tasks.
  • Flat structure you'll be treated like the adult professional you are.
  • Stability this family office has been operating in Cyprus for over 15 years.
  • No third-party stress you'll work for the group itself, not clients.
  • On-site Monday to Friday, but with trust and flexibility for life admin.
  • Salary range: 2,500- 4,000/month gross, depending on your breadth of experience.
  • 13th Salary plus medical insurance 

If you've worked on KYC/AML in FX-only or retail banking roles, this probably isn't the right match unless you've handled complex structures and genuinely want to pivot. Likewise, if you're looking for a supervisory title without rolling up your sleeves, this wont suit you.

You'll likely thrive here if you are:
  • Hands-on and self-directed, with 4+ years in compliance/AML in corporate/professional settings.
  • Fluent in English, with excellent written clarity. Greek - desirable but not essential. 
  • Structured, tidy, and a bit obsessive about documentation (we love that).
  • Curious and capable someone who learns by doing, not by waiting.
  • Certified (CySEC, EIMF, CYFA) is a plus. So is FATCA/CRS exposure.
