We are looking to recruit an AML Investigation Officer to join our AML Directorate and AML Investigations Team. The role will be a hybrid model, based at home with one to two days a week at our Cube location in central Birmingham.

**About the role and the team**

We are looking for an Anti Money Laundering Investigation Officer to join our AML Investigations team. This specialist team focuses on investigations, where potential allegations are brought in respect of breaches of the relevant Money Laundering Regulations and sanctions regime. This is a high-profile and fast-moving area of work.

As an AML Investigation Officer, the matters you will have conduct of will primarily have AML issues associated with them but may also include other regulatory breaches and do include some of the SRA’s most high-profile and complex investigations. Collating and analysing complex information, you will be responsible for making fair and proportionate decisions based on the SRA’s Enforcement Strategy. You will also be regularly writing reports and letters to a high standard, which are evidence based and demonstrate sound analytical skills, as well as presenting cases to our increased fining powers surgeries (where the recommended fine can now be up to £25,000 for recognised bodies and sole practitioners).

The AML team is responsible for providing consistently high standards of AML supervision as directed by the Office for Professional Anti-Money Laundering Supervision (OPBAS) and statutory regulations. The team provides a collaborative and supportive environment. We value training and the discussion of cases between Investigation Officers and other stakeholders, such as our colleagues in the AML Proactive Supervision Team, who conduct proactive AML focused inspections and reviews of overall AML and sanctions compliance at law firms the SRA regulates.

**What we are looking for**
- Experience of successfully leading and investigating complex and multiple issue cases/ investigations.
- Experience of working within AML, regulation, or compliance.
- Excellent communication skills, able to draft complex documents to a high standard.
- Ability to digest and analyse large volumes of information.
- Experience of influencing and constructively challenging internal and external stakeholders.
- Ability to contribute to the continuous improvement of investigation knowledge, processes and outcomes, particularly in relation to matters with a wholly or significant AML issue

**What’s in it for you**
- Opportunity to specialise within the field of anti-money laundering and associated misconduct at law firms.
- Work collaboratively with other SRA teams, such as Forensic Investigations (who conduct onsite inspections in the most serious and complex investigations), Intelligence and Legal & Enforcement, as well external agencies, such as the NCA, FCA and the Police.
- Develop your career in anti-money laundering and receive specialist training, including the opportunity to complete an ICA Certificate in AML and sanctions.
- Play a part in developing ‘best practice’ and work as part of a friendly team.
- Protect the Public and enforce high professional standards by engaging with regulated firms and individuals as well as members of the Public.
- Variety of case holding where no one case is the same

There are lots of opportunities to develop your career and progress within the directorate and the wider SRA. The starting salary is £40,425 plus very attractive benefits with an annual review.

**Useful and additional information**

There is a full role profile attached to the bottom of this advert on our website.

This is a hybrid role and will be based in our Birmingham office one to two days a week, and from home the rest of the week.

**To apply**

Assessment and Interviews are planned to take place in early March.

**Previous applicants to this role within the last six months will not be considered.**
