What I'm looking for

I seek a role that challenges my AML expertise while fostering professional growth.

I am an AML Compliance Officer with a strong background in legal practice and anti-money laundering investigations. My journey began with a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Portsmouth, followed by an LLM in Intellectual Property Law from the University of Leeds, where I graduated with distinction. I have honed my skills through various roles, including my current position at Trading 212, where I develop and implement AML policies to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

In my previous role as an AML Investigations Officer at Hellenic Bank, I analyzed complex client profiles and identified suspicious patterns, preparing detailed reports for the Unit for Combating Money Laundering. My legal training at Orphanides, Christophides & Co LLC provided me with a solid foundation in drafting legal documents and representing clients in court. I am passionate about leveraging my legal expertise and AML knowledge to contribute to effective compliance strategies and risk management.
