Based within Finance Operations, this business-critical role supports a team of six and works closely with Compliance, Legal, and Business Directors. You'll manage end-to-end compliance processes, applying strong due diligence and enhanced due diligence (EDD) to assess suppliers from an AML and fraud risk perspective.

-
Conduct in-depth due diligence and EDD reviews, escalating issues where necessary and applying sound judgement.
-
Monitor and assess ongoing risk across our supplier and customer base, enhancing business-as-usual (BAU) processes to address emerging compliance threats.
-
Use data and analytics platforms to streamline risk oversight and strengthen decision-making.
- Support the team through the implementation of a new ERP system and contribute to process development during this transition.
What You Will Bring
-
Highly organised, analytical thinker with strong communication skills and a calm, professional approach.
-
You'll enjoy working in a fast-paced, evolving environment where you can make a real impact.
-
Excellent attention to detail with strong analytical and reasoning abilities.
-
Proven organisational and time management skills.
-
Comfortable working across multiple stakeholders, including senior management.
-
Logical, methodical problem-solver with a collaborative mindset.
- Adaptable and resilient with the ability to manage changing priorities.
Experience
