    Description
    GLOBAL COMPLIANCE
    Our division prevents, detects and mitigates compliance, regulatory and reputational risk across the firm and helps to strengthen the firm's culture of compliance. Compliance accomplishes these through the firm's enterprise-wide compliance risk management program. As an independent control function and part of the firm's second line of defence, Compliance assesses the firm's compliance, regulatory and reputational risk; monitors for compliance with new or amended laws, rules and regulations; designs and implements controls, policies, procedures and training; conducts independent testing; investigates, surveils and monitors for compliance risks and breaches; and leads the firm's responses to regulatory examinations, audits and inquiries. You'll be part of a team with members from a wide range of academic and professional backgrounds, such as law, accounting, sales, and trading. We look for those who possess sound judgment, curiosity, and are able to adapt to a changing regulatory landscape.
    Financial Crime Compliance (FCC) has primary responsibility for the execution of the firm's enterprise-wide Anti-Money Laundering (AML), anti-bribery, and government sanctions compliance programs and, among other things, performs enhanced due diligence and government sanctions screening, as well as surveillance and investigations designed to identify potential terrorist financing, money laundering, bribery, market abuse, or other suspicious activity.

These business lines include banking, principal investments and certain asset management businesses. BIG works closely with deal teams and subject matter experts within Global Compliance, including broader FCC, and Legal.
    • BIG is composed of lawyers and compliance professionals with extensive regulatory, government, audit and transactional experience.
    • This is an opportunity to work in a global team on a diverse range of transactions across jurisdictions.

    RESPONSIBILITIES
    • Conduct/support due diligence to help the identification and assessment of legal and reputational risk in a variety of transactions and business relationships
    • Conduct in-house public records research on companies and other counterparties using online resources, specialist databases and public filings
    • Instruct and liaise with external investigative consultants, evaluate their reports and challenge findings where necessary
    • Help drive the due diligence process to address issues identified, coordinating with in-house lawyers, external counsel, compliance and business teams
    • Considerations include anti-bribery, anti-money laundering and economic sanctions compliance, environmental and social responsibility concerns, geo-political risk, financial irregularities, litigation risk, etc
    • Prepare summary and presentation materials for analysis by relevant business areas of the firm and firmwide committees
    • Brief BIG team members and members of other divisions of the firm on research findings verbally and present research results on conference calls where appropriate
    • Take responsibility for developing relevant industry/regional expertise and anticipating potential reputational risks
    • Become involved in other special projects on an ad hoc basis

    SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE WE ARE LOOKING FOR
    • 2-4 years of relevant experience at a due diligence or corporate investigations firm or in the financial sector.
    • Technical and research proficiency with experience in open source / public records research, both online and using compliance and media databases (e.g. Factiva).
    • Foreign language skills not essential but preferred.
    • Analytical and critical-thinking skills. Able to assess and judge risks within the commercial context of often complex transactions and relationships, and suggest constructive solutions to navigate and mitigate reputational, legal and regulatory risk.
    • Excellent communication skills. Ability to present conclusions confidently and effectively, both verbally and in writing, in a succinct manner.
    • Organisational skills and high attention to detail, with the ability to process and analyse high volumes of information.
    • Intellectual curiosity and interest in current events and international relations.
    • Team player with ability to collaborate with and consult team members across different levels of seniority and different jurisdictions.
    • Highly organised and able to work effectively in a fast-paced and, at times, pressured environment, taking a proactive approach to potential issues.
    • General experience dealing with or interest in learning more about the investment banking industry and knowledge of various types of investing and lending transactions.
    • Strong sense of discretion with respect to highly confidential information.
