AML Analyst

Edinburgh

Hybrid working

I'm working with a leading Scottish law firm that's looking to add an AML Analyst to its growing Risk & Compliance team in Edinburgh.

If you have experience in Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Client Due Diligence (CDD), sanctions screening, source of funds, or legal compliance, this could be an excellent opportunity to join a highly respected firm with a supportive team and genuine career development

• Reviewing Client Due Diligence (CDD) documentation
• Conducting AML, sanctions, PEP and adverse media checks
• Reviewing incoming client funds and source of funds queries
• Advising fee earners on AML regulations and internal policies
• Supporting client and matter risk assessments
• Helping maintain compliance with UK AML Regulations and internal procedures
• Escalating unusual activity where appropriate

• Experience in AML, Risk & Compliance or Financial Crime
• A background in a law firm, banking or financial services environment (preferred but not essential)
• Strong analytical skills and excellent attention to detail
• The confidence to challenge where required and build relationships with stakeholders

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to further their career in Legal Compliance, AML, Financial Crime, or Risk & Compliance within a well-established firm.
