About the Role

We’re recruiting for an AML & Conflicts Assistant to join an Ambitious Specialist Law Firm. This role is all about ensuring the firm stays ahead of regulatory requirements, conducting in-depth conflict checks and client due diligence to protect both the business and its clients. If you have a keen eye for detail and thrive in an environment where accuracy and discretion are key, this could be the role for you.

In this role, you’ll:

  • Carry out conflict of interest checks on new clients and matters
  • Review and interpret conflict search results, flagging and advising on potential risks.
  • Keep detailed records of all conflict assessments and decisions.
  • Conduct CDD and KYC checks in line with money laundering regulations.
  • Verify client identities, assess risk levels, and identify any red flags.
  • Run sanctions and PEP checks on clients and other relevant parties.
  • Continuously monitor client relationships and update records to ensure compliance.
  • Maintain accurate and confidential KYC records.

We’re looking for someone with a degree and experience in a similar role, ideally within a law firm (though it’s not essential). You’ll need strong analytical skills, the ability to manage multiple tasks at once, and a high level of attention to detail. Clear and professional communication is key, as is the ability to collaborate effectively with colleagues at all levels.

If you’re meticulous, proactive, and ready to take on a crucial compliance role, get in touch.
