Stepping back into your career? We’re here to support your next chapter.
If you’ve taken a career break of two years, this is your opportunity to return to meaningful work, with the structure, support and flexibility to help you succeed.
About the Career Comeback Program
Our 12-week Career Comeback program is designed to support talented professionals re-entering the workforce. As part of the program, you’ll join us in a permanent role within our Risk team, while receiving personalised support to ease your transition, including:
- A tailored induction and re-onboarding experience
- Dedicated Career Coaching and mentoring
- Professional development workshops to rebuild your confidence and help you thrive Ongoing guidance from a dedicated program manager
-
We also understand the importance of flexibility, whether you’re returning full-time or part-time. We offer hybrid work, with at least half your time spent connecting in the office each month, plus options for flexible start and finish times.
About the team
Our Financial Crime Compliance (FCC) team plays a critical role in keeping our customers and communities safe. We partner with teams across the Group to detect and disrupt financial crime, ensuring compliance and supporting responsible risk management. You’ll be joining a collaborative and purpose-driven team that values curiosity, integrity, and fresh perspectives.
About the role
As a Financial Crime Compliance Manager, you’ll use your expertise to provide guidance and insights across a variety of financial crime matters. You’ll collaborate with stakeholders, support risk assessments and control reviews, and contribute to a range of initiatives that strengthen our financial crime capabilities.
Depending on your background and skillset, we’re able to tailor the role to align with your area of expertise. For example, if you have a legal background, the role could have a strong governance focus, involving policy development and board reporting. Alternatively, if your experience lies in Banking or Financial Crime, the role could take on a more advisory lens — partnering with stakeholders across the Bank to provide strategic risk advice on financial crime matters.
Your day-to-day could include
- Advising on financial crime escalations and queries
- Supporting governance reporting and analysis
- Reviewing and enhancing policies, procedures, and controls
- Analysing transaction monitoring or screening data
- Assisting with assurance reviews and risk assessments
- Partnering with regulators and law enforcement on intelligence and reporting
