- Support the SAR Lead on enquiries and projects relating to reporting to the FIU

- Collaborate with bright Financial Crime Compliance people across the globe - making an impact not just in Europe but across the globe
- Learn and develop tremendously both technical compliance and personal skills.

**A bit about you**:
We are looking for someone that’s passionate about financial crime, fintech and building an incredible product that changes the financial lives of customers across the globe. You should have:

- Experience in working with CTIF, the Belgian FIU
- An excellent storyteller that helps our investigations come to life and supports the FIU in their fight against crime

**_ We’re people without borders — without judgement or prejudice, too. We want to work with the best people, no matter their background. So if you’re passionate about learning new things and keen to join our mission, you’ll fit right in._**

**_ Also, qualifications aren’t that important to us. If you’ve got great experience, and you’re great at articulating your thinking, we’d like to hear from you. And because we believe that diverse teams build better products, we’d especially love to hear from you if you’re from an under-represented demographic._
