Dobson Welch is proud to partner with a prestigious global law firm, a true leader in serving the world's most innovative people and businesses. We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Junior Business Acceptance Analyst to join their dynamic Risk team in Liverpool. This is your invitation to step into a role that will challenge and inspire you, opening doors to a truly global legal career.

If you are a recent graduate or an early-career professional with a keen interest in compliance and risk management roles, this is your chance to gain invaluable experience within the legal sector.

Your Role as a Junior Business Acceptance Analyst

You will play a crucial role in supporting the firm's client and matter intake processes, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. This position offers a unique vista on the inner workings of a global law firm, providing a solid foundation for a career in legal compliance.

Key Responsibilities:

• Champion client due diligence by ensuring Anti-Money Laundering standards are rigorously met.
• Tackle conflict of interest searches with analytical precision, proactively escalating any concerns.
• Delve into internal and external databases to uncover key insights through thorough research.
• Evaluate and interpret risk profiles for both new and existing clients, directly shaping team understanding and strategy.
• Act as a trusted adviser to partners and fee earners, providing practical guidance on compliance, inception, and conflict queries.
• Safeguard client confidentiality by actively supporting the management of information barriers.
• Energise team efforts by engaging in major projects and contributing to the success of the firm's international network.

What We're Looking For:

Our client fosters an inclusive culture and seeks a reliable and enthusiastic individual who is eager to learn and progress. Whilst direct experience is valued, it is not essential, making this an excellent opportunity for recent graduates.

Qualifications and Skills:

• Ideally, you hold a university degree, demonstrating your commitment to learning and personal growth.
• You're an exceptional communicator, able to connect with colleagues and clients alike with clarity and confidence.
• Your keen eye for detail and advanced research skills help you notice what others might overlook.
• Professionalism defines you—you approach every challenge with a solutions-oriented, client-first mindset.
• You thrive in fast-paced environments, skilfully juggling priorities while taking full ownership of your tasks.
• Collaboration comes naturally, and you're always ready to support your team whenever required.
• You embrace new technology and adapt quickly to evolving processes.
• Whether you have hands‑on experience in the legal or professional services sector or are driven by curiosity and ambition, your passion to learn and develop will set you apart.

Why You Should Apply

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a firm that genuinely invests in its people. You'll be part of a supportive and forward-thinking team in a state-of-the-art office located on Liverpool's vibrant Royal Albert Dock.

Benefits Include:

• Enjoy a highly competitive salary alongside an impressive suite of employee benefits designed with you in mind.
• Benefit from 25 days' annual leave to recharge and enjoy life outside work.
• Access a generous well-being allowance, comprehensive private medical insurance, and private GP services to support your health and peace of mind.
• Take advantage of enhanced family leave and Eco‑friendly perks such as the salary‑sacrifice electric car scheme.
