About The Role
As an AML Analyst, you'll play a critical role in protecting Sportsbet and our customers from financial crime. Working within our AML Operations team, you'll help operationalise Sportsbet's AML/CTF Program by conducting customer due diligence investigations, monitoring customer activity, identifying suspicious behaviour, and supporting regulatory compliance obligations. You'll also use data and insights to help inform operational and strategic decisions while partnering with stakeholders across the business to strengthen our risk management framework and promote best-practice AML/CTF outcomes.
Responsibilities Include:
- Conduct Know Your Customer (KYC), Customer Due Diligence (CDD), and Enhanced Customer Due Diligence (ECDD) investigations to verify customer information and assess risk.
- Monitor and investigate transaction monitoring alerts, escalating potential money laundering, terrorism financing, or suspicious activity where required.
- Complete sanctions, politically exposed person (PEP), adverse media, and restricted territory screening activities.
- Prepare and submit Suspicious Matter Reports (SMRs) accurately and within regulatory timeframes.
- Analyse customer activity data and provide insights, reporting, and recommendations to support operational and strategic decision-making.
- Partner with stakeholders across Operations, Risk, Compliance, and Legal to strengthen AML/CTF controls, manage risks, and promote a strong compliance culture.
While we are big on development and offer on the job training, we want to set you up for success.
You're naturally curious, analytical, and enjoy solving complex problems. You have a strong understanding of AML/CTF obligations and are passionate about protecting customers and businesses from financial crime. You thrive in fast-paced, highly regulated environments and can confidently balance attention to detail with sound judgement. A strong communicator, you're comfortable engaging with stakeholders at all levels and enjoy collaborating to drive positive outcomes. Most importantly, you're someone who challenges the status quo, embraces continuous improvement, and brings a customer-first mindset to everything you do.
What You Will Bring
- At least 2 years' experience in AML/CTF, financial crime, compliance, risk, or a related field.
- Experience conducting KYC, customer due diligence, transaction monitoring, or financial crime investigations.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to engage a broad range of stakeholders.
- Excellent problem-solving, organisational, and prioritisation skills with a keen eye for detail.
- Experience working within a regulated industry and supporting internal or regulatory audits (e.g. AUSTRAC).
