Job description

The Opportunity:

Working as part of our global Risk & Compliance function, the Business Acceptance team is responsible for ensuring the firm is protected from reputational, legal, and commercial risks. This includes analysing all new clients and matters to identify and resolve legal and commercial "conflicts of interest", ensuring compliance with anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (AML/CTF) obligations, and meeting international regulatory requirements for sanctions, politically exposed persons (PEPs), and client-related negative press.

The role is ideally suited to an individual with a clear and confident communication style, strong analytical and research skills, and a desire to work collaboratively with a dynamic and motivated team. The successful candidate will have a keen eye for detail, an interest in current affairs, and the ability to work well under pressure. A legal qualification is not essential, but problem solving, professionalism, and sound judgement are key.

You will join a global team with colleagues across Glasgow, London, Dubai, Singapore, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, and New Zealand, working together to provide risk and conflicts clearance that supports partners and clients alike in their pursuit of exciting deals across the globe.

This is a full-time role on an initial 12 month fixed term basis, based in our Glasgow office with hybrid working.
