Bilingual executive assistant and KYC/AML compliance analyst focused on reliable operations.
What I'm looking for
I’m a bilingual executive assistant who brings initiative, adaptability, integrity, and commitment to every assignment. I support senior executives by coordinating schedules, managing complex administrative operations, and handling internal communications, travel, events, and office management with strong attention to detail and data accuracy.
In compliance-focused work as a KYC/AML Compliance Analyst, I help ensure the organization adheres to anti-money laundering screening using compliance databases and know-your-customer (KYC) regulatory requirements. I perform due diligence, monitor transactions for suspicious activity, and support sanctions, PEP, and adverse media screening while maintaining compliance with local and international financial regulations.
I also bring operations and commercial experience through roles including Assistant Sales Manager and Purchasing Assistant (Internship). I guarantee administrative processes and daily sales operations, train new staff, and help develop sales strategies, while assisting the purchasing team with supplier quotations, order tracking, inventory control, and monitoring stock levels using SAP.
