The KYC Analyst is responsible for performing customer due diligence (CDD) across the client lifecycle — from onboarding to periodic reviews — ensuring compliance with AML/CFT regulations and internal standards.

What you'll be spending your time on:

  • Conduct KYC checks for new client onboarding, reviewing and validating identification and supporting documents.
  • Review and process Virtual Account (VA) applications, ensuring all required documentation meets policy and regulatory standards.
  • Perform ongoing due diligence (ODD) by conducting periodic reviews of client profiles, verifying data, and identifying changes in customer risk levels.
  • Escalate higher-risk clients or suspicious findings to senior compliance staff.
  • Maintain accurate, complete, and audit-ready KYC records.
  • Collaborate with Relationship Managers, Operations, and Compliance to resolve information gaps.
  • Contribute to workflow improvements that enhance efficiency and compliance outcomes.
  • Keep current with regulatory changes and adapt practices accordingly.

For this role you also have:

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Business, Law, or related discipline.
  • 1–3 years of AML/KYC experience in financial services, fintech, or a regulated industry.
  • Familiarity with onboarding, ongoing monitoring, and remediation processes.
