Department/Role overview
This is an exciting role within the internal facing Financial Crime and Risk (FCR) team at Ashurst. This role is designed to help you step from onboarding obligations to advising the partnership on complex financial crime queries and shaping the policies for the firm across a range of risk areas.

The Risk & Compliance function is commercially minded and focusses on adding value to the business and stakeholders.
The successful candidate will support the management of complex escalations and the quality assurance and regulatory audit programme.
