• Carry out KYC checks and verify corporate documents such as incorporation certificates, shareholder registers and director details
• Perform sanctions, PEP and adverse media screening, plus customer due diligence and risk assessments
• Escalate high-risk or unusual cases to the compliance team
• Keep accurate client records and audit trails
• Support improvements to onboarding processes, policies and compliance controls

What you need

• At least 2 years' experience in KYC, customer onboarding or compliance within fintech, banking or financial services
• Experience reviewing corporate structures and business documentation
