Compliance Officer, AML & Monitoring

Flow Traders is looking for a Compliance Officer with a focus on AML & monitoring. The ideal candidate is hands-on, proactive and has excellent communication skills. This is a unique opportunity to join a leading proprietary trading firm with an entrepreneurial and innovative culture at the heart of its business. We value quick-witted, creative minds and challenge them to make full use of their capabilities.

In this role, you will be responsible for quality assurance and will play a critical role in ensuring the integrity and effectiveness of our AML program. You will conduct detailed reviews, sample checks and assessments of AML compliance processes, as well as identify areas for improvement, and ensure adherence to legal and regulatory requirements.

What you will do

• Perform regular quality checks on AML compliance processes to ensure accuracy and completeness
• Review counterparty due diligence (CDD) files, particularly enhanced due diligence (EDD) files, to ensure they meet regulatory standards and comply with our anti-money laundering (AML) policies and procedures
• Collaborate with AML analysts and investigators to assess the effectiveness of investigative procedures and outcomes
• Develop and maintain metrics and reports to communicate findings and recommendations to compliance management
• Identify and escalate potential compliance risks and deficiencies in the AML program
• Assist in the implementation of corrective actions to address identified weaknesses in AML processes
• Stay up to date with the latest trends, regulatory changes, and best practices in AML compliance
• Provide training and guidance to employees on AML policies and procedures

What you need to succeed

• Bachelor's degree in finance, business, law, or a related field
• Minimum of 3 years of experience in AML compliance, audit, AML quality checker or a similar role. Experience working with wholesale clients or counterparties, including large corporate entities and major financial institutions with complex structures is required. Experience solely with retail clients is not sufficient.
• Strong knowledge of AML regulations and compliance requirements
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills
• Ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with cross-functional teams
• Detail-oriented with a strong focus on accuracy and quality
• The ability to translate the regulation into practical guidance for the 1st LOD
• A good understanding of the Wwft and AMLD regulations and the AFM and DNB guidelines
• Certification in AML or compliance (e.g., CAMS, CFE) is a plus
