Citi Belfast is one of the largest employers in Northern Ireland with a diverse and talented team of over 3000 people from over 40 different nationalities across our four Belfast offices.

We are the only global investment bank operating in Northern Ireland. Every day, our local experts interact with global teams in over 100 countries developing and supporting next-generation technology solutions for the enterprise and delivering critical services to the bank and its customers, to make sure we are a stronger and safer organization for our clients.

You will have a truly global reach, which will provide you with new experiences and development opportunities right here in Belfast's iconic Titanic Quarter.

Team Overview:
The AML team proactively identifies, assesses, reports, and mitigates AML and reputational risks across many different business lines, products, legal entities, and jurisdictions to the benefit of our franchise, customers and employees.

The AML team sets standards and uses an enterprise-wide Compliance risk management approach in partnership with the business and other Global Functions to drive a strong culture of Compliance and control and support the principles of Responsible Finance.

Compliance is committed to providing sound, independent advice, and excellence in execution.

A UK FIU Investigative Analyst will work closely with the wider UK FIU team based in Belfast and London to conduct investigations on alerts generated by transaction monitoring hubs and escalations submitted directly by the business and other partners to determine whether further investigation is required, or a Suspicious Activity Report ("SAR") is warranted on behalf of the UK Nominated Officer based in London.
