AML Manager

As an AML Manager at YBS you will be joining a team who is driven to do the right thing for our customers and colleagues. You will lead and develop a motivated team to support the delivery of our strategic priorities!
At YBS we’ve created the kind of workplace where you can make a difference. It’s somewhere you can put purpose ahead of profit. Where you can balance commerciality with conscience. Where you can focus on growing, developing, learning, and progressing. Where you can be your best.

About this role

As an AML Manager you will play an important role in leading, developing and overseeing the operational performance of the AML Team. You’ll be working to protect customers and the Society as well ensure we are fulfilling regulatory and statutory obligations in respect of anti-money laundering, sanctions and counter terrorist financing activities. You will be a control owner and be expected to drive incremental improvement in our control environment.
Responsible for a team of up to 12, you’ll manage the team’s workflow within agreed SLAs, with a real focus on quality and risk mitigation. You be responsible for the operational delivery across the Financial Crime Team ensuring that appropriate resources are effectively deployed to manage AML risks, delivering an exceptional experience for customers and colleagues.

You’ll also help shape an environment where everyone is accountable for financial crime and raise the profile of the department. You’ll also collaborate other business areas to support their understanding of financial crime in order to mitigate risk for the business.
Alongside this, you will support the high-risk customer management process and interact regularly with key stakeholders across YBS. You’ll be involved in making key business decisions and hold a delegated responsibility for the nominated officer for external disclosures.

The role will be predominantly office based at our Yorkshire Drive office in Bradford.

About You

You’ll need SME knowledge of AML and Sanctions legislation and guidance, relevant to financial services, retail banking or building society environment, with a focus across mortgages and savings. You’ll have proven knowledge and experience in performing investigations, high-risk case management and CDD & EDD.
This will be coupled with experience of managing a team of AML professionals and developing and implementing process improvement within AML operational activity. You’ll also hold an ICA Diploma in AML or equivalent.

You’ll also bring your continuous improvement mindset, always looking for ways we can improve our ways of working. With a collaborative approach and strong communication and relationship building skills, you’ll be more than ready to engage and collaborate with colleagues at all levels.
