As a Transaction Monitoring Analyst at a global digital asset platform, you investigate unusual transaction patterns and alert activity to protect platform integrity and enable sound compliance decisions. You turn monitoring data into evidence-based findings that meet regulatory expectations, and during your first 12 months you will independently handle routine alerts to the required quality standard, contribute actionable insights to rule improvements, and help close recurring investigation and workflow gaps.
What you'll do
- Monitor digital asset transaction activity, investigate unusual patterns and alerts, document the evidence, and escalate material findings under established policies and procedures
- Analyse case outcomes and alert trends to test, maintain, and refine transaction-monitoring rules, improving detection quality while reducing unproductive alerts
- Produce concise investigation reports that explain the activity reviewed, analysis performed, conclusions reached, and rationale for escalation or closure
- Work with compliance, risk, and technology colleagues to resolve cases and translate recurring control issues into practical workflow improvements
What you bring
- A bachelor's degree or above
- Ability to analyse high-volume transaction data, distinguish meaningful risk signals from noise, reach evidence-based conclusions, and follow cases through escalation or closure without losing attention to detail
- Capability to turn recurring case patterns into practical recommendations for monitoring-rule testing, calibration, or workflow improvement
- Clear written and spoken English, with the ability to produce investigation records others can follow and challenge, and work constructively across compliance, risk, and technology teams
- Consistent application of policies, protection of confidential information, escalation of uncertainty, and sound judgment and documentation quality across shift-based coverage
Nice to have
- Exposure to blockchain, digital assets, financial crime compliance, or transaction monitoring through coursework, an internship, or practical work
- A relevant credential such as CAMS or Chainalysis Reactor certification
- Chinese communication skills
