Airwallex is the leading financial technology platform for modern businesses growing beyond borders. With one of the world’s most powerful payments infrastructure, our technology empowers businesses of all sizes to accept payments, move money globally, and simplify their financial operations, all in one single platform.

Established in 2015 in Melbourne, our purpose is to connect entrepreneurs, business-builders, makers and creators with opportunities in every corner of the world. Today, Airwallex has a global footprint across Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle-East and North America.

Based out of our Lithuania office, this role will work closely with other members of the regional and global Compliance Operations, Financial Crime Compliance and Operations Strategy teams to ensure that Airwallex meets all of its Know Your Customer (KYC)-related regulatory obligations, in line with our risk appetite and culture of compliance -- all the while helping to ensure that current and future clients have as seamless an onboarding experience as reasonably possible.

As an early member of the Airwallex EMEA team, you will play a front-line role in ensuring that we maintain strong operational compliance as we scale our commercial efforts in the region. Your overall objective as a Senior Onboarding Operations Analyst is to ensure that you provide an effective line of defence against any potential money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions violation, fraud, or other financial crimes activity that bad actors may try to perpetrate using Airwallex’s solutions. You will be expected to quickly ramp up on our Anti-Money Laundering (AML)/Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF) obligations and apply a strong attention to detail and sound, objective business judgment as you put our AML/CTF policies and procedures into practice.

You will:

  • Perform Client Due Diligence to evaluate the customer from a compliance perspective and ensure that all established procedures are followed while providing a great customer experience

  • Continuously improve streamlined processes to manage the end-to-end onboarding process from a financial crimes risk perspective

  • Work with the Airwallex Compliance Team to ensure Airwallex’s adherence to local and global compliance policies and procedures

  • Stay up-to-date on AML-related news and emerging regulatory developments Perform period reviews and support audits

You are:

  • Relentlessly curious - Your analytical skills are second to none and the concept of deriving data-driven insights invigorates you… but you don’t succumb to analysis paralysis

  • Process driven - You enjoy developing, documenting, and following procedures to ensure they are efficient, scalable, and defensible

  • A team player - You are a natural in building relationships with your colleagues… but you enjoy working independently as much as you enjoy working with a team

  • A master prioritizer - You leverage sound judgment to quickly assess all the tasks at hand and expertly prioritize them

  • Inquisitive by nature - You know when to dig a little deeper to get to the bottom of a problem and solve it; in doing so, you ask the right questions necessary to arrive at a sound, risk-based decision

You have:

  • 2 -3 years of process-oriented experience requiring meticulous attention to detail and well-honed written and verbal communications; bank or fintech experience strongly preferred

  • Relevant knowledge of European AML Directives and subsequent implementations into local laws, with understanding of the AML/CTF regulations, principles, and typologies

  • Proven track record of managing personal performance against objective targets and using data and analytics to make decisions

  • Proficiency in the use of Excel and other Office / G Suite tools, case management systems, and third-party data-oriented SaaS vendors

  • Comfort with a fast-paced, dynamic environment is a must; past exposure to a high-growth and/or globally distributed startup is also valuable

  • Preferably an AML certification (e.g. ACAMS, ICA)

  • Language Skills: French, German or Spanish Language would be advantageous

At Airwallex you’ll have the ability to make an impact in a rapidly growing, global fintech. We want you to share in our success, which is why you’ll be offered a competitive salary plus valuable equity within Airwallex. We also like to ensure we create the best environment for our people by providing a collaborative open office space with a fully stocked kitchen. We organize regular team building events and we give our people the freedom to be creative.
