**We are looking for a new AML Associate to join our AML proactive supervision team to lead on our on-site inspections.**

**The team**

At the SRA, keeping money launderers out of legal services has long been a priority. Anti-money laundering (AML) in the legal sector is seeing rapid change and our AML Proactive Supervision Team helps respond to these emerging trends through ongoing engagement with law firms to improve compliance and share knowledge. Proactive supervision with firms involves engagement, as well as desk-based reviews and onsite inspections.

**The role**

As an AML Associate, you will lead on-site inspections into regulated firms and individuals across England and Wales. With your in-depth knowledge and understanding of AML legislation and practices, you will conduct reviews independently to assess firms’ compliance with AML legislation and financial sanctions. Reviewing related documents and interviewing fee earners and senior members of firms, you will be able to draw out key information to make assessments and identify risks that require action. You will engage with firms to provide high quality guidance and feedback, including compliance plans, using your expertise to brings firms into compliance.

Pro-actively collaborating with AML and wider SRA colleagues, you will support the effective delivery of SRA objectives and a joined-up approach to AML. You will be knowledgeable about financial crime regulation and the regulation of solicitors to explain our work to law firms and to contribute to the debate on how AML regulation should work.

There is a full role profile attached at the bottom of the advert which provides further information on the role and requirements.

The role requires travel across England and Wales to conduct on-site inspections, on average 1-2 days a week.

***

**What is in it for you?**
- Build relationships and engage with a range of stakeholders, firms, and individuals.
- Showcase your ability to analyse complex and technical information to identify AML risks.
- Work in a friendly collaborative team.
- Fantastic opportunities for career progression, as well as support with undertaking additional learning and qualifications.

**What we are looking for**
- At least 3 years of experience of working in a regulatory, legal or AML environment.
- Detailed knowledge and understanding of AML/CTF legislation and procedures or a strong legal background
- Experience of conducting on-site visits, inspections or investigations with law firms or equivalent businesses.
- Experience of complex cases and drafting reports in a contentious or regulatory environment.
- Effective communication skills at all levels and the ability to explain complex matters succinctly and with clarity.
- Proven ability to plan and manage own workload in a highly efficient and effective manner, and to meet competing deadlines while meeting quality criteria.

**Useful and additional information**

Typically, you will be working from home 2-3 days a week and attending on-site inspections and working from the office rest of the week.

**To apply**

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