Job Description

Your mission
You'll lead the teams that make our AML Operations function brilliant at what they do. Your focus? Making sure our people are set up for success through world-class training, rigorous quality control, and smart outsourcing partnerships. You're not running day-to-day operations – you're building the foundations that let our operational teams deliver fast, fair, and compliant outcomes for our customers.
This is about enabling excellence at scale, in true [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal] fashion: no shortcuts, no unnecessary complexity, just what works.

What you'll be doing
You'll lead a team of Senior Leads across three critical enablement areas, working closely with FinCrime Operations, Product, and Compliance to keep raising the bar.

• Training & Development
  • Own the end-to-end training strategy for AML Operations – from onboarding new starters to keeping seasoned investigators sharp on evolving risks and regulations
  • Design and deliver training programmes that are engaging, practical, and effective
  • Build scalable learning frameworks that work across our global teams and outsourced partners
  • Measure what matters: training effectiveness, time-to-competency, knowledge retention
  • Stay ahead of regulatory changes and make sure our teams are always ready
• Quality Control
  • Lead our QC function to ensure investigations are accurate, consistent, and compliant
  • Build robust QC frameworks that catch issues early and drive continuous improvement
  • Turn QC insights into actionable feedback loops for training and process improvement
  • Partner with Compliance to ensure we're meeting regulatory expectations across all jurisdictions
• Project Management & Outsourcing
  • Lead a team of project specialists to identify and deliver operational improvements across AML Operations
  • Partner with Operations and Product teams to turn insights from training and QC into tangible process enhancements
  • Drive initiatives that improve efficiency, accuracy, and the overall customer experience
  • Ensure improvements are implemented effectively and embedded into BAU
  • Oversee relationships with our outsourced partners, ensuring they meet [Employer hidden — sign up to reveal] standards
  • Drive performance through clear SLAs, regular calibration, and constructive feedback
  • Work with vendors to embed our training and QC standards into their operations

Qualifications

Experience:

• 10+ years in Operations, ideally in banking or fintech

• Proven track record building and scaling training programmes, coaching & mentoring initiatives – this is essential
• Strong experience in quality assurance and control frameworks
• Familiarity with managing outsourced operations and vendor relationships

Leadership

• 5+ years leading and developing senior teams
• You've built future leaders, not just managed people
