Job Description:

ONLY CANDIDATES WITH EXPERIENCE IN PERMANENT ROLES NEED APPLY

With over 2,500 professionals employed across Europe, the Americas, Asia, and the Middle East, my client is a truly global company which currently has an excellent opportunity for an experienced legal compliance professional to join their Leeds office as a Compliance Analyst on a 12-month fixed-term contract.

This role involves reviewing client files under the supervision of an experienced management team, ensuring compliance with legislation within the Cayman and British Virgin Islands jurisdictions. While experience within these jurisdictions is highly desirable, it is not essential; my client is also interested in junior candidates in the KYC/AML profession.

The ideal candidate will have:

• A good and advanced understanding of KYC and AML regulatory obligations;
• An ability to be adaptable and work towards multiple deadlines;
• Comfort working under minimal supervision (support will be available as needed);
• Strong organizational, communication, and teamwork skills; and
• A genuine enthusiasm for a career in compliance.

The successful candidate will be expected to attend the Leeds office 2–3 times a week, located approximately 3–5 minutes' walk from Leeds Train Station. Benefits include comprehensive health coverage, life and travel insurance, educational and professional development support, and access to savings and pension plans.
