Job description

Social network you want to login/join with:

As an AML Analyst based in RPC's Bristol office, you will be part of a central team which reports into the AML Manager, conducting client due diligence ("CDD") checks on our clients and matters in line with our anti-money laundering ("AML") and combating the financing of terrorism ("CFT") obligations. The central team services all RPC offices, which are based in London, Bristol, Singapore, and Hong Kong.

You will work closely with our lawyers globally to gather information and documents, and conduct your own research, to write high-quality client and matter CDD risk assessments for a diverse range of corporate entities and individuals. In addition, you will be in regular contact with our wider Risk team and Money Laundering Reporting Officers, who you will advise by making necessary referrals and escalations for their consideration, where needed.

At RPC, training and development is important. You will receive bespoke training to support you in role, and there is a comprehensive CDD procedure, templates, and guidance for you to follow. You will also have access to a broad curriculum of firm wide training events. This role also offers the opportunity to train and mentor new starters to the team once you've mastered elements of the role and are ready to share your knowledge. The team and firm growth ambitions also provide opportunity for supervisory positions in the future.

Key Responsibilities

Day to day duties may include, but are not limited to:

• Carrying out CDD checks on clients and matters in line with the AML/CTF regulations and drafting the corresponding risk assessments for Partner review and approval.
• Where required, escalating higher-risk clients and matters to Risk and/or the relevant MLRO for their review and approval, making recommendations as to any next steps and supporting with any further research requested by those persons.
• Liaising with our lawyers to identify and verify information about our clients and matters to support our risk assessments.
• Effective use of open sources and other available databases to research and document information that is relevant to our clients and matters.
• Managing your own workload, and following up where needed with our fee earners to ensure CDD is progressing on work assigned to you.
• Management of the centralised team inbox, which includes ensuring that any general CDD queries are addressed, and that the work is fairly distributed amongst all of the AML Analysts within the team depending on capacity.
• General client and matter onboarding administration (e.g., saving documentation in iManage, and approving clients when CDD is complete in Aderant)

AML Analysts are expected to contribute towards the development of the team by:

• Delivering high quality and timely output to internal clients, ensuring high levels of client service and alignment with agreed working practices
• Working to develop an environment of constant improvement: enthusiastically sharing with and helping others; and taking responsibility for aspects of team development, such as intranet pages, training, process improvement etc.
• Capturing and collating required AML records and other MI in accordance with agreed practice for reporting, SLAs, performance management, and other purposes
• Contributing to the development and improvement of the team's service, support, processes, and procedures
• Demonstrating the values and behaviours that build up the team and keep it client-focused

Knowledge, skills and experience

• Good written and verbal communication skills
• Well-organised and efficient, with good attention to detail
• Hardworking, enthusiastic, and motivated
• Collaborative and willing to turn a hand to whatever is needed to meet team aims
• Able to work in a fast-paced environment and adapt to change
• Able to deal with difficult or demanding situations
• Self-starting and able to self-manage effectively
• Commercially aware, with an understanding of the need for efficient working

Required

• Previous experience in a client and matter onboarding role, or an AML focussed role (in any sector)
• Demonstrable knowledge of Microsoft Office (including Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook)

Advantageous

• Experience with using World Check / Compliance Catalyst / Orbis
• Experience with using Intapp
• Experience of working in the legal sector
• Experience with drafting risk assessments and completing CDD checks
