Senior In-house Counsel – AML/Sanctions (National Opportunity)

EMEA
Global Operations
Leeds
Permanent

The Governance & Compliance team’s remit is across our UK, Europe, Asia and Middle East offices, supporting the business, our legal and other colleagues.  We are responsible for the firm’s regulatory and legal compliance, for its contracts with clients and suppliers, for new business intake and conflict management, for ISO 9001 accreditation, for its insurance arrangements and for handling claims. 


The role is extremely varied; the issues that arise and the queries from our legal teams mean that no two days are ever the same.  The work is a mix of strategic projects and supporting the Business Acceptance team on AML and sanctions issues arising out of new work. Examples of strategic projects include implementing new legislation or regulation – assessing the impact for the firm, designing new policies and procedures, rolling them out across the business – supporting our international expansion, supporting major work streams from clients and reviewing processes and making efficiencies
