Job Type: Full-time

Overview

Your opportunity Want to make an impact that matters? So do we. We believe reputation and integrity are critical to the success of both society and our firm. Are you experienced in the Financial Crime space? Are you looking to take your skills to the next level? Do you thrive in a fast-paced, global environment, working with colleagues from around the world, to meet our business and client needs? Do you have a personal drive to make an impact that matters? If that sounds like you, our Financial Crime & Ethics team role could be the next step you’re looking for. This is your opportunity to work across our business areas to help protect against the ever increasing threat of financial crime, to both ours, and our sectors, integrity. The spectrum of our work is broad - ranging from anti-bribery & corruption, client acceptance, sanctions compliance to ethics. We set policy, establish controls, provide training, perform due diligence, and liaise with the enforcement authorities. We encourage consideration of flexible ways of working, both formal and informal arrangements that allow for the best outcomes for our people and our clients. If this opportunity is of interest to you with some flexibility, please do discuss with us. Are you looking to return to the workplace after an extended career break? For this role we can offer coaching and support designed for returners to refresh your knowledge and skills, and help your transition back into the workplace after a career break of 2 years or more. If this is relevant for you, just let your recruiter know when you make your application. Your role The main emphasis of this role will be split between focusing on high risk client acceptance and enhanced due diligence. You will be reviewing information provided by client due diligence analysts, and forming opinions as to the appropriateness of accepting and continuing clients and engagements. You will play a role in developing technical material, including policy, guidance and training. Given the breadth of work the team covers, you will have increasing opportunity to take on responsibility across other areas of financial crime. Your work, your choice At Deloitte we believe the best impact is the value we add, not the hours we sit at our desk. We carefully consider agile ways of working, both formal and informal, that allow for the best impact for our people and our clients. Please speak to your recruiter about the working pattern that works best for you. Location: Cardiff - Some travel, mainly within the UK, will be required. Work pattern: This is a permanent contract opportunity. The role can be worked on a full-time basis. Your professional experience Ideally you have an understanding of the relevant legislation in the financial crime space. You may have experience in a regulatory or business environment allowing you to understand or quickly learn the nature of the markets and regulatory environment in which Deloitte operates. You will be able to demonstrate an ability to follow defined processes while thinking outside of those boundaries, and be able to handle complex queries on a daily basis, making reasoned decisions and be able to communicate them with confidence. You will be required to be flexible, so you are able to react to a variety of issues as they arise, and maintain high professional standards particularly regarding confidentiality. Your service line: Quality, Risk and Security The Quality, Risk and Security (QRS) community is an overarching identity for all of the professionals who manage quality and risk for Deloitte. It comprises: Deloitte Business Security (DBS), National Quality and Risk Management (NQRM), Quality & Risk Operations (QR Ops), and Service Line Quality and Risk Management teams (including Switzerland), and is led by a dedicated partner who sits on the firm’s Executive. Within QRS, we use our skills and experience across a variety of disciplines to support a risk intelligent culture at Deloitte; enabling our partners and practitioners to deliver high quality services to their clients, minimising the administrative burden on our people, and acting as custodians of firm risk, security, ethics and reputation. Personal independence Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints. This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm. The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process.
