Requirements
- To do this, you will have a minimum of 3 years experience as Compliance Officer and you will most likely be located in Singapore
- Your education
- Any criminal history
- Any political exposure
- Any bankruptcy or adverse credit history
Responsibilities
- Review and Approval of High-Risk Client Assessments: Review 100% of escalated high-risk client cases within 2 hours, providing constructive feedback to the compliance officer on any oversight or areas for improvement. Present each case to the Head of Compliance for final approval within 4 hours
- Timely Management of Screening Alerts: Ensure that no name screening alerts remain outstanding for more than 24 hours, and no transaction monitoring alerts remain unresolved beyond 48 hours
- Quality Review and Reporting: Conduct quality reviews of Low/Medium/High-Risk cases, covering at least 20% of each risk category. Prepare a findings report each quarter with suggested remediations to improve overall quality and adherence
- Investigation Timeliness and STR Filing: Complete and/or review at least 80% of investigations within 15 calendar days, ensuring that any required STRs are filed within 5 calendar days of closing the investigation
- Enhancements to on-board and on-going monitoring processes: Identify and recommend key improvements in conducting client KYC, risk assessment, transaction monitoring or screening processes, implemented with Product and IT teams
Preferred Qualifications
- Ownership: This shows reliability and helps build trust within the team. We move fast and need to know that everyone will see things through to completion and proactively help to get things back on track when challenges arise. Accountability is really important to us
- Humility: There is so much we don’t know. Humility allows for open-mindedness to feedback and a willingness to learn from others. It paves the way for collaboration and creates a positive work environment. It is a key ingredient of self awareness and emotional intelligence
- Structured Thinking: Our business is complex with many layers (many services, many countries, many cultures). Regardless of whether you’re more analytical or creative in nature, being able to show sound judgement is important to us. It ensures solutions are pragmatic and balance the needs of the organisation, team and customers
- Clear communicator: Excellent spoken and written English
- Can have tough conversations in a positive way: It’s not a matter of if, but when difficult interpersonal situations arise. Disagreement, conflict and disappointment are a given in a fast moving business where people care about their work. People that proactively have tough conversations with kindness build empathy, trust and great working relationships
Benefits
- You’ll be able to work from home 3 days per week if located in Singapore, or fully remote otherwise
- If you need to start early or start late to cater to your family or other needs, we don’t mind, so long as you get your work done and proactively communicate
- You can also work fully remote from anywhere in the world for 1 month each year
- We pay competitive market salaries and provide staff with generous paid time off and holiday schedules
- Certain staff at Sleek are also eligible for our employee share ownership plan and can share in the upside of our stellar growth trajectory as we work toward listing on a prominent stock exchange in the Asia Pacific region
