What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead AML/CFT, financial crime compliance, trade finance, or banking operations teams where I can strengthen controls, develop people, improve efficiency, and support regulatory excellence.

I'm leading AML/CFT compliance at NRBC Bank PLC, overseeing bank-wide programs, regulatory reporting, policy development, and financial crime risk management.

Previously at Shimanto Bank PLC, I led AML/CFT and trade operations teams, strengthened KYC, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, and TBML controls across cross-border trade.

I've evaluated CTR alerts for STR/SAR reporting, supported FATCA/CRS reporting, addressed audit observations, and delivered AML, CFT, TBML, and CBML training for bank officials.

Across more than 16 years in banking, I've worked in branch banking, trade finance, compliance, and operational leadership. My work has been recognized with Chairman's Awards in 2021 and 2022 and a Star Performer Award in 2019.
