Assignment context and activities

We are currently looking for an experienced Transaction Monitoring (TM) Compliance Tech expert, with a technical profile (i.e., a background in mathematics, physics, econometrics, or similar).

In order to contribute to the bank's Wwft gatekeeper role in a sustainable manner, our Compliance TM team aims to further expand its monitoring function. This includes monitoring the design, setup and implementation of the TM framework by the first line of defence.

As TM Compliance Tech expert, your aim is to monitor the TM machine learning models in order to provide insights on the extent that these comply with the set regulations, policies and procedures, and operating effectively within the bank's risk appetite.

In specific, you will focus on understanding, monitoring, and challenging the TM machine learning models in design and operational performance, and specific topics such as hibernation and peer grouping. In this role, you will do so by either opining on the (statistic) information and documentation as delivered by the first line, or you will run your own (statistic) independent second line assessments.

In your role, you will closely work together with other Compliance Officers, Risk management Model Validation colleagues, and the TM teams in the first line of defence.

While affinity with financial crime regulations (such as money laundering and terrorism financing) and TM is preferable, we primarily look for someone who can provide deep technical insights on the TM machine learning models, connect these insights with actual TM risks, while operating effectively in a multi-stakeholder environment.

With the following results

• Monitor, advise and challenge the design and performance of current TM machine learning models
• Assess, monitor and challenge specific TM topics, such as hibernation and peer grouping
• Interpret monitoring results in the context of the bank's risk appetite
• Define controls for periodic monitoring of TM machine learning models' effective operation
• Advise on and raise risk awareness among the bank's board members through Compliance opinions and independent thematic reviews

Relevant knowledge and skills

• Education: Master's degree in mathematics, physics, econometrics or similar field
• Experience: 5-10 years of experience, with at least 2-3 years within TM. Experience within the Compliance / risk / audit context is essential
• Technical skills: In-depth knowledge of TM and machine learning models
• Soft skills: Strong interpersonal skills (empathy, persuasiveness, self-learning and decisiveness) and stakeholder management
