Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom NatWest Group Full time
Standards Design Manager - Anti-Money Laundering & Counter-Terrorism Financing

We are seeking a highly skilled Standards Design Manager to join our team at NatWest Group. As a key member of our Financial Crime function, you will play a vital role in driving a generative culture of risk awareness and recommending solutions to financial crime risk issues within our businesses.

In this specialist capacity, you will partner with the business, products, and Risk function to identify, assess, and manage risks within agreed risk appetite, using our bank's risk framework. You will also be responsible for delivering a robust risk governance framework in line with our operational risk handbook and conduct and compliance handbook.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Designing new standards, including creating strategic standards for all financial crime risk typologies for bank-wide operational execution and assurance across the three lines of defence, that mitigate risk efficiently and effectively.
  • Leading and inspiring a team of business and customer control partners to ensure team objectives are achieved.
  • Collaborating with business product owner teams to turn standards into artefacts for onward implementation into strategic solutions and operating procedures.

To be successful in this role, you will need good working knowledge of anti-money laundering (AML) processes, systems, controls, and operating model, as well as experience of reporting analysis to stakeholders. You will also need excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, with experience of successfully engaging with stakeholders in order to successfully deliver initiatives.

Additionally, you will need knowledge of financial crime processes, systems, policies, and regulations across multiple disciplines, specializing in AML or counter-terrorism financing, politically exposed people and exits. Experience of working within approved governance to ensure that any changes to existing documented procedures are compliant with policy and regulatory requirements is also essential.

We offer a fast-paced and varied role with a firm emphasis on your development. You will work from home some of the time, but you will also spend a significant amount of time working from an office or hub, a minimum of 2 days per week.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about risk awareness and has a strong understanding of financial crime processes and regulations. If you are a motivated and experienced professional looking for a new challenge, we would love to hear from you.
