What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my AML expertise while fostering team collaboration and driving compliance initiatives.

I am an experienced AML professional with a strong background in transaction monitoring, due diligence, and process optimization. My career has been marked by a proven ability to streamline operations, support regulatory compliance, and effectively manage team dynamics. I have honed my skills in providing management support, including KPI analysis and reporting, which has enabled me to contribute significantly to my teams' success.

Currently, I serve as a Senior AML Officer at BNP Paribas CIB in Lisbon, where I mentor and train new team members while acting as a single point of contact for interdepartmental communication. My analytical abilities allow me to conduct thorough due diligence investigations and assess alerts for potential money laundering risks, ensuring compliance with AML regulations. I am eager to leverage my expertise in AML processes and leadership skills in a senior compliance role.
