The Financial Crime Unit (FCU) operates as a managed services and advisory delivery team supporting global financial institutions across Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Know Your Customer (KYC), Transaction Monitoring (TM), and financial crime compliance initiatives.

The team works in a structured, high-volume, and quality-driven environment, collaborating closely with Team Leaders, Quality Control, Subject Matter Experts, and global stakeholders.

• Work collaboratively with team members, Team Leaders, and Quality Control
• Demonstrate continuous improvement through feedback, learning, and self-development

• Bachelor's degree or college graduate in Accounting, Finance, Business, Economics, or a related field
• Fresh graduates or candidates with less than one year of experience are welcome
• Prior exposure to AML, KYC, TM, compliance, or financial services is an advantage but not required
