· Conduct research, gather information, and compile evidence to document files clearly and factually, in accordance with internal standards and regulatory expectations.

· Partner with business lines and operations teams to embed sanctions considerations into day-to-day activities and decisions.

· Maintain strong day-to-day risk management practices and contribute to the design and implementation of new systems and processes.

· Where required, report suspicious transactions to FINTRAC within regulatory timeframes using prescribed systems, recognizing potential intersections with sanctions-related typologies.

Profile sought:

· Bachelor’s degree in a related field and one year of relevant experience OR university certificate/undergraduate diploma and three years of relevant experience, OR a three-year college diploma (or equivalent) in a related field and four years of relevant experience.

· Customer service experience.
