  • Experience in an assurance, risk or control role with a Financial Crime focus

  • Extensive experience in Financial Crime QA or remediation role

  • Banking experience

  It would also be nice for you to have:

  What else you need to know:

  Our preferred location for this 12-month fixed-term contract is Milton Keynes, but we’ll also consider locating the role in Bradford or Glasgow.

  We want our people to thrive at work and home, and also be able to deliver the best outcomes for our customers and to help each other develop. To support this, we offer site-based contracts with a hybrid working pattern and our expected level of attendance in an office is at least 12 days per month (pro-rata for part-time roles).

  If you apply for this role in any of these locations, it’s important you consider your travelling distance, time and cost from your home to the office locations.

  We’re happy to discuss specific working patterns and arrangement within this hybrid approach during the recruitment process.

  If you’re interested in this role but with part time hours or a job-share we would still love to hear from you and discuss these.
