- Work closely with Compliance, Legal, and Risk teams to ensure a consistent approach to AML obligations and risk management.
- Support AML training and awareness initiatives, ensuring that business teams understand compliance responsibilities and industry best practices.

Trade Association Engagement & Regulatory Monitoring

- Monitor and analyze regulatory developments, industry trends, and policy discussions, particularly those impacting AML/ATF compliance.
- Attend CBA AML working groups and other trade association meetings, summarizing key takeaways and potential impacts for internal stakeholders.
- Support the Senior Manager in stakeholder engagement, ensuring the business remains informed on relevant AML policy changes and regulatory expectations.
- Track industry-wide AML initiatives and collaborate with internal teams to assess their relevance and impact on company policies.

Additional Responsibilities:

- Stay informed on AML/ATF regulatory updates and emerging financial crime trends, proactively identifying compliance risks.
- Assist management in implementing new or revised AML/ATF regulations and policies as applicable.
- Support internal audits, government examinations, and regulatory reviews, ensuring timely remediation of any compliance gaps.
- Participate in mandatory training, conferences, and industry webinars to stay up to date on AML compliance developments.
- Perform other duties as assigned by the AML Manager to support the overall Compliance & Ethics program.

Qualifications & Skills:

- University degree or equivalent combination of education and business experience.
- 5 years experience working in AML with a strong knowledge of AML/ATF regulations, industry trends, and best practices.
- Experience engaging with trade associations (such as CBA) or regulatory bodies on financial crime compliance matters.
- Ability to analyze regulatory changes, assess business impacts, and provide strategic recommendations.
- Strong stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to interact effectively with internal business units, compliance teams, and external regulatory groups.
- Experience in AML advisory, risk assessments, and sanctions compliance within a financial institution.
- Excellent communication and analytical skills, with the ability to summarize complex regulatory topics for various stakeholders.
