What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Compliance Specialist at Servus Credit Union, where I have successfully spearheaded anti-money laundering (AML) compliance initiatives. My efforts in enhancing transaction monitoring and suspicious activity reporting have significantly improved our operational procedures. I take pride in developing comprehensive training materials that have boosted team efficiency and fostered a culture of collaboration within the organization.
With a strong background in investigation techniques, I excel at identifying suspicious activities and ensuring compliance with AML regulations. My role involves conducting thorough internal reviews and drafting detailed reports on findings, which has allowed me to contribute to the organization's overall risk management strategy. I am committed to continuous learning and regularly participate in industry webinars and events to stay updated on the latest developments in financial crime prevention.
