About the Role
Act as the compliance lead for Sokin's onboarding (CDD/KYC) and transaction monitoring change initiatives. Translate regulatory requirements into product requirements, drive delivery timelines, and ensure new client journeys, monitoring rules, and system configurations are compliant, evidenced, and audit-ready before go-live. This is a delivery-oriented role requiring collaboration with Product, Technology, and Operations across Sokin's multi-jurisdictional licence footprint. Success is measured by the compliance, quality, and audit-readiness of all onboarding and transaction monitoring system changes.
Responsibilities
- Own the compliance workstream for onboarding-related product initiatives.
- Translate CDD/KYC regulatory requirements across Sokin's licensed jurisdictions into clear product/business requirements for Product and Engineering teams.
- Design and test risk-based CDD workflows within onboarding tooling.
- Lead UAT and pre-launch compliance sign-off for onboarding system changes, ensuring configurations match approved policies and jurisdictional variations.
- Manage relationships with KYC/identity verification vendors on project delivery, including scoping, testing, and performance monitoring of new capabilities.
- Lead compliance input into transaction monitoring system enhancements, and new product or partner requirements.
- Translate Transaction Monitoring and Reporting regulatory requirements across Sokin's licensed jurisdictions into clear product/business requirements for Product and Engineering teams.
- Coordinate model/rule validation exercises and ensure changes are documented to a standard that satisfies internal audit and regulatory examination.
- Act as the compliance project lead on a portfolio of onboarding/TM initiatives.
- Sit within product tribes as the compliance representative, providing timely regulatory input without becoming a delivery bottleneck.
- Maintain a book of work for CDD/TM regulatory change and convert it into a prioritised roadmap with Product.
- Define and execute test plans and post-implementation reviews for onboarding/TM changes; maintain evidence packs suitable for regulator and auditor review.
- Partner with the Three Lines of Defence framework, acting as a control owner for project-related changes and escalating residual risk appropriately.
- Support internal audit, external audit, and regulatory examinations on matters relating to onboarding and transaction monitoring systems and controls.
Requirements
- 6–8+ years in financial crime compliance (AML/CFT), with meaningful exposure to CDD/KYC and transaction monitoring in a payments, e-money, or fintech environment.
- Demonstrable experience working within or alongside product/engineering teams — e.g. writing requirements, running UAT, participating in agile delivery — rather than purely policy/advisory compliance.
- Working knowledge of transaction monitoring systems (rule-based or model-driven platforms) and KYC/identity verification vendors.
- Understanding of multi-jurisdictional AML/CFT regimes.
- Strong project management skills — comfortable owning a roadmap, running governance reporting, and managing multiple concurrent workstreams.
- Excellent written communication skills, able to produce BRDs, test plans, and governance papers usable by both engineers and regulators.
- Prior experience with a regulator-facing remediation programme is a plus.
- Familiarity with SQL or data querying to interrogate TM alert data and support rule tuning discussions is an advantage.
- Must have the right to work in the jurisdiction they are looking to work in.
