LLB-qualified compliance professional specializing in AML/KYC, beneficial ownership verification, and regulatory operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m an LLB-qualified legal & compliance professional with experience in regulatory operations across international banking and corporate services, including Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A. and CSC Group. I support compliance within fund administration and corporate services by conducting AML/KYC, client due diligence (CDD), and beneficial ownership verification under EU and Dutch regulatory frameworks.
In my roles, I maintain audit-ready compliance records, regulatory registers, and documentation to support regulatory oversight and internal governance. I review corporate and legal documentation, conduct risk-based assessments, monitor operational and financial data for discrepancies, and escalate issues for corrective action or further compliance review.
I also bring a strong legal foundation from my LLB (Hons) Law studies—Trust Law, fiduciary principles, covenant obligations, and legal documentation interpretation—combined with practical exposure to trust and fiduciary administration structures. I’m recognized for regulatory awareness, analytical ability, and stakeholder coordination, and I aim to help teams strengthen internal controls, documentation workflows, and regulatory readiness.
