The role holder must be able and willing to use advanced computing assets in order to achieve real practicable results. The candidate must be able to handle areas of uncertainty. The role holder must have a demonstrable interest and capability in computer sciences and new technology.

In this role, you will:

• Key technical resource in the evolution of the Group’s financial crime intelligence capability and the management of financial crime risk.
• Be able to work with key stakeholders in determining FCTM analytical requirements.
• Have the ability to communicate often complex analytical solutions to the wider department, ensuring a strong transfer of key findings & intelligence.

Qualifications

• A combination of applied mathematics, statistics, advanced computing (machine learning, artificial intelligence), visualisation, data engineering. Specific domain expertise in the area of combatting financial crime and/or a strong R&D background an advantage.

• Demonstrable, inquisitive nature with the ability to pursue lines of inquiry independently.
