The Compliance Associate supports the firm's financial crime control framework across the full customer lifecycle, delivering front-line operational execution for onboarding due diligence, screening, and transaction monitoring across both BNPL and SVF product lines.
Key responsibilities include reviewing and assessing screening results (sanctions, PEPs, adverse media) and escalating potential matches in line with internal procedures. The role involves conducting enhanced due diligence (EDD) on high-risk customers and merchants, ensuring all findings are well-documented and meet regulatory expectations. You will review and verify Know Your Business (KYB) documentation to ensure accuracy, completeness, and compliance with UAE regulatory standards.
Additional duties include monitoring and investigating unusual or suspicious transactions, documenting findings, and escalating cases where appropriate. You will maintain comprehensive notes and audit trails for all compliance reviews, investigations, and decisions. The role requires close collaboration with internal teams (onboarding, risk, legal) to resolve compliance issues and queries in a timely manner, and ensuring compliance records and systems are updated in accordance with internal policies. You will stay informed of relevant UAE AML/CFT regulations and industry developments.
Required qualifications include a bachelor's degree in a relevant field (Law, Finance, Business, or related discipline). Preferred experience includes 1–2 years in a compliance, KYC/KYB, or financial crime function. Strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and familiarity with AML, sanctions screening, KYC/KYB, and EDD processes are essential. Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English are required, along with the ability to work independently and manage tasks effectively from a remote location. High integrity and professionalism when handling confidential information are critical.
