Duties and Responsibilities • 3–5 years of AML operations experience, or strong general compliance experience within a regulated financial services firm.

  • Draft Suspicious Matter Reports (SMRs) and other regulatory reports for AMLCO review and AUSTRAC lodgement within statutory timeframes
  • Conduct customer due diligence (CDD), enhanced due diligence (EDD), and ongoing reviews on higher-risk clients
  • Clear sanctions, PEP and adverse media screening hits with clear, documented rationale
  • Assess source-of-funds and source-of-wealth documentation across a range of client profiles
  • Contribute to CCAU's ML/TF risk assessment, policies, procedures and control testing
  • Support the AMLCO during regulator engagement, internal audit, and independent review activities
  • Maintain audit-quality records so every case decision can be defended to regulators and reviewers
  • Provide guidance and training to first-line teams (CS, onboarding, payments) and act as an escalation point
  • Apply human oversight over AI-assisted AML workflows, challenging outputs where the case warrants

Experience, Knowledge and Skills

  • Operational AML or financial crime experience in a regulated financial services firm
  • Working knowledge of Australian AML obligations, including the AML/CTF Act, AML/CTF Rules and relevant AUSTRAC guidance
  • Experience drafting SMRs and applying the "reasonable grounds to suspect" test in practice
  • Confidence working with transaction monitoring, sanctions screening and KYC platforms
  • Sound judgement on source-of-funds and source-of-wealth documentation
  • Clear written English suitable for regulator-facing case files and the confidence to defend a position

Nice to have

  • ACAMS, ICA or equivalent AML qualification (or active study)
  • Exposure to CFDs, derivatives, or other leveraged products
  • Experience in a multi-entity or multi-jurisdiction group structure
  • Familiarity with common onboarding, KYC and screening platforms
