About the role

To support the growth of an investment firm based in Luxembourg, we are looking to recruit an experienced AML/KYC professional who is highly motivated, curious and comfortable working both independently and as part of a team.

• Ensuring that external stakeholders, including banks, lenders, co-investors and regulatory authorities, receive accurate and complete information in a timely manner.
• Liaising with external stakeholders to clarify documentation requirements and identify appropriate solutions where requests exceed the scope of information that can reasonably be provided.
• Maintaining and updating relevant Luxembourg corporate registers, including the Trade and Companies Register (RCS) and the Register of Beneficial Owners (RBE).
• Ensuring accurate record-keeping and the proper completion and maintenance of the dedicated KYC system.
• Working closely with Compliance colleagues and external stakeholders to ensure compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.
• Coordinating the annual collection of information required for FATCA and CRS reporting.
• Implementing action plans and following up on outstanding AML/KYC files, escalating persistent issues to senior management when necessary.
• Reviewing and optimizing AML/KYC workflows to improve efficiency, facilitate information sharing and strengthen controls, including through the automation of recurring tasks.
• Coordinating the implementation of new digital and AI-enabled tools and supporting their integration into the organization's existing systems.
• Providing support on other day-to-day legal and compliance matters as required.
