DESCRIPTION
The AML/ Transaction Monitoring Sr. Analyst plays a key role in the prevention and detection of financial crime through proactive transaction monitoring and investigative analysis.

REQUIREMENTS
- Review and analyze transactional activity triggered by automated monitoring systems or manual referrals to identify patterns indicative of potential money laundering, fraud, or terrorist financing.
- Conduct end-to-end AML case investigations — gathering data, performing transactional analysis, corroborating findings through public and internal sources, and recommending disposition (e.g., escalation, closure, or SAR filing).
- Prepare high-quality case narratives and supporting documentation for internal escalation or submission of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) in accordance with regulatory timelines and internal quality standards.
- Perform background checks and contextual research on counterparties and entities linked to alerts, using both public and subscription databases (e.g., , LexisNexis).
- Maintain clear audit trails and ensure all investigative steps, conclusions, and rationales are accurately captured in case management systems.
- Collaborate with Quality Control and Quality Assurance to ensure investigations meet internal policies, procedures and regulatory expectations.
- Participate in periodic refresh reviews and identify new red flags or typologies through ongoing analysis of customer behavior.
- Proactively identify process improvements and suggest control enhancements to strengthen AML detection and reporting capabilities.
Qualifications
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Business, Law, or related field.
- Language: Minimum English C1
Experience

Skills
- Verbally strong enough to discuss cases in ENGLISH and GERMAN with stakeholders
- Strong analytical and investigative mindset with the ability to interpret large transactional datasets.
- Excellent drafting and case-writing skills, with emphasis on concise and factual narratives.
- Sound understanding of AML / TM regulations, typologies, and red-flag indicators.
- High attention to detail, organization, and accountability in documentation.
- Risk-based mind-set, understanding that TM is not a ‘check-the-box’ exercise.
Certifications

- You must possess a valid work permit or residency for Portugal and/or citizenship of a European Union or Schengen Area country.
