• Draft and update compliance policies, procedures and entity-specific addenda for review and approval in line with regulatory developments.
• Support regulatory-change horizon scanning, recording applicable changes against the obligation register and flagging implementation requirements.
• Handle first-line queries on compliance and AML/CFT matters, escalating appropriately, and support responses to legal, regulatory and law-enforcement requests.
• Support AML/CFT work including quality assurance sampling, high-risk onboarding and client-classification approvals, and internal and external audit support.
• Support preparation of compliance reports, Board and committee materials and other materials required by internal stakeholders.
• Work closely with teams such as Data, Engineering, Finance, Legal, Marketing, Product and Risk to embed an effective compliance framework aligned with MFSA and EU standards.
