About the Role

As a Senior Financial Crime Intelligence Analyst, you'll play a key role in handling screening and transaction monitoring alerts to prevent bad actors from processing transactions through BVNK. You’ll also conduct in-depth analysis and thorough investigations to address complex and varied financial crime threats. You’ll be taking ownership of cases triggered by BVNK’s financial crime systems and controls, focusing primarily on BVNK’s digital assets offering, and mitigating financial crime risks for BVNK. While this role focuses on BVNK’s digital assets offering, your cases will inevitably crossover with the world of fiat currency and you’ll have the opportunity to support cutting-edge investigations in fiat and digital assets.

Responsibilities

• Reviewing sanctions and watchlist screening alerts on entities and individuals on relevant lists;
• Management of end-to-end financial crime investigations stemming from BVNK’s transaction monitoring system, Trade Surveillance, payment screening tools, blockchain analytics provider, and other triggers;
• Identifying opportunities to improve workflows and business processes through the effective use of AI tools and automation;
• Receiving escalations from, and providing coaching to, more junior team members;
• Drafting Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) for submission to the relevant authorities;
• Working closely with colleagues responsible for BVNK’s transaction monitoring systems; identifying and testing changes to the rules in our transaction monitoring system;
• Seeking out and escalating opportunities to enhance BVNK’s control environment.

Requirements

• At least 3 years’ experience in crypto transaction monitoring within a regulated institution or digital assets setting. Experience in a B2B context is essential, as we are primarily a B2B business.

• Experience reviewing sanctions and watchlist screening alerts, within a regulated institution or digital asset setting;
• Experience using tools such as Chainalysis, Elliptic, or TRM (or equivalent). Any blockchain related investigative certifications are desirable but not required;
• Experience leveraging AI tools and technologies to streamline processes, automate routine tasks, and drive operational improvements;
• Strong knowledge of AML/CTF regulations, financial crime typologies, and risk-based compliance frameworks is required;
• Knowledge of Trade Surveillance would be an asset;
• Experience drafting and submitting Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs);
• Motivated and proactive individual contributor, who takes pride in the quality of your work;
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving, and demanding environment, often with competing priorities;
• Happy working with a high degree of autonomy and managing evolving priorities to deliver against the team's strategy;
• Interest in digital assets, and looking for an opportunity to expand your knowledge in this space;
• Exceptional written and verbal English.
