Job Description
We are looking for a Senior AML Officer to join the AML team at Tink. This is one of the key roles in Tink’s development as a payments company. We believe that it would be an ideal move for a professional with a solid background in anti-money laundering (AML) and counter terrorism financing (CTF) with a drive to continually improve themselves and the organization in which they work.
The AML team’s responsibility is to prevent Tink’s products from being used for criminal activities. The main task in this area is the establishment and continuous enhancement of an AML/CTF and counter financial crime framework, consisting of processes, systems and tools as well as training programs tailored to Tink’s specific needs but also drawing from Visa’s capabilities.

You will be a part of the first-line AML operations team collaborating closely with internal stakeholders such as Tink’s commercial- & customer support teams, product teams as well as having close customer contact. For this role, you need to be based in Stockholm. The role reports to Tink’s AML Manager.

• Act as the first line of defence for new partners and customers
• Analyse customer applications and perform risk-based recommendations, including PEP, Sanctions, and Adverse Media checks
• Analyse customer behaviour and transaction patterns
• Suggest and take the lead on improvements to the different processes and procedures
• Lead and collaborate with cross-functional teams on day-to-day tasks as well as on projects
• Enhance the existing AML/CTF framework at Tink

• Work closely with the AML Manager and the MLRO/OCR to escalate suspicious transactions to the relevant national authorities.
• Suggest improvements to the monitoring processes, the on-boarding process, consumer risk rating process and review routines to improve detection.

This is a hybrid position. Hybrid employees can alternate time between both remote and office. Employees in hybrid roles are expected to work from the office 2-3 set days a week (determined by leadership/site), with a general guidepost of being in the office 50% or more of the time based on business needs.

Qualifications

• At least 5 years of experience working with AML/CTF in an operational, hands-on role
• Experience from a regulated payment institution
• Experience with leading/supporting different projects within the area
• The ability to prioritize, structure and adapt to changes in an entrepreneurial environment.
• Expertise within core AML/CTF processes such as customer due diligence and onboarding and transaction monitoring
• Strong investigative and analytical skills that you can translate into clear and concise reports, recommendations or decisions
• Having experience in establishing processes and updating governance documents is a plus
• Strong communicator in spoken and written English and Swedish
