• Work closely with the Product Managers on the implementation of improvements to the CDD process: draft requirements, review product specifications for new CDD related features;

• Draft guidance documents and provide regular training to 1LOD CDD team in relation to various risk elements of CDD (e.g. drafting instructions on how to assess adverse media, risks of specific industries, PEP acceptance etc.);

• Participation in Enterprise Wide Risk Assessment cycle by providing input on CDD related risks;

• Initiate and take responsibility for ad hoc project work within the department;

• Performing other duties as reasonably required for the operational efficiency of Finom (pro-actively deemed necessary by the employee) or/and as communicated by the manager.

• Leadership: people management of one direct report, with potential expansion plans
