Assistant Manager / Senior Consultant , Economic Crime Advisory in Kingston upon Thames

We are BDO, an accountancy and business advisory firm, providing the advice and solutions businesses need to navigate today's changing world. Our clients are ambitious, entrepreneurially-spirited and high growth businesses that fuel the economy.

Our Advisory team provides a wide variety of services that deliver value-led advice and outcomes. They have an in-depth knowledge of business, industry sectors and markets and understand the constantly changing risks and opportunities at the heart of our clients' affairs. The team works across strategy, operations and improvement as well as at a transactional and defined project level. From technology to risk advisory, they are experts in following through on top-level instructions and resolving the finer details.

As an Assistant Manager within the Economic Crime Advisory team, you will support the delivery of financial crime compliance engagements across our portfolio of clients across all sectors, including financial services, betting and gaming, real estate, crypto and legal. You will cover disciplines such as anti-money laundering, fraud prevention, counter-terrorist financing, sanctions, market abuse, anti-bribery and corruption, and/or tax evasion.

You will play a key role in assisting the team with developing our financial crime offering and working methods. Our engagements typically include independently assessing clients' financial crime frameworks, supporting the creation, enhancement and remediation of financial crime systems and controls, and optimising financial crime frameworks to be more efficient and effective using technology and/or sustainable target operating models across the three lines of defence.

You will have:

• Experience in financial crime, fraud (or similar) regulatory compliance.
• A passion for supporting clients with their financial crime frameworks to mitigate financial crime risk.
• An interest in learning, upskilling, and expanding knowledge and skillset into broader sectors through diverse projects and on-the-job coaching.
• The ability to juggle multiple projects and deadlines, prioritising work where needed, and independently managing your own workload successfully (desirable but not essential).
• The ability to investigate and resolve problems with some support and guidance as required involving senior members of the team.
