Oversee the end-to-end AML review process for the team, including customer onboarding reviews, periodic/trigger-based reviews, and documentation checks, to ensure adherence to internal standards and required timelines. Establish, maintain, and continuously improve QA frameworks (e.g., sampling, 1.5-line review standards, checklist effectiveness) to monitor case quality, completeness, and consistency in decision-making.

Maintain clear escalation pathways and ensure the team escalates exceptions, high-risk observations, and potential STR/other matters in a timely and controlled manner to the relevant stakeholders (Compliance/MLRO channels where applicable). Collaborate with internal partners (Front Office, Client Coverage, Operations, Compliance/Financial Crime functions) to resolve process gaps, clarify requirements, and improve end-to-end workflow efficiency. Support audit and regulatory readiness, including preparing responses to issues raised, providing QA evidence, implementing remediation actions, and tracking closure with management oversight.
