Strong knowledge of risk management frameworks and regulatory obligations including the AML/CTF Act and Rules — with the ability to advise on legislative reforms and evolving compliance expectations.
Sound understanding of industry schemes, intelligence capabilities, and emerging technologies such as transaction monitoring, screening, and data analytics to manage financial crime risk.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distil complex issues into clear, compelling narratives for senior stakeholders and diverse audiences.
