IMC is a leading global market maker, using algorithmic trading and advanced technology to buy and sell securities on multiple trading venues worldwide. We provide liquidity to the financial markets, driving efficiencies for buyers and sellers.

OUR CULTURE

Our employees are our greatest asset, so we give them lots of responsibility and the support they need to make a difference. Our flat structure fosters a culture of openness and collaboration, encouraging the sharing of ideas and knowledge. It makes no difference if you have been with us for three days or three years; the best idea wins.

While we work hard, we also have a lot of fun, whether solving complex challenges or engaging in team-building, leisure, and sporting activities. IMC also enables its employees to contribute towards a better society through our foundation.

WHAT YOU'LL DO AS AN AML ANALYST AT IMC

The Compliance Team operates very closely with our Trading and Technology teams and reports to the Head of Compliance – Europe. The main objective of the team is to ensure our organization complies at all times with external and internal regulations. We strongly believe a robust compliance culture can only be built when employees not only adhere to the policies and rules but also understand the context and intent of regulation. 

As an AML Analyst at IMC, you will be responsible for the Counterparty Due Diligence controls for new counterparties and existing relationships. The work mainly consists of collecting information regarding the counterparty, its ownership structure, owners, or directors. The initial and continuous screening of the counterparty and its owner(s) or directors is also part of your activities. All the information that is collected should result in a clear summary in which you describe the risk classification assigned to the counterparty. Moreover, you will be responsible for handling incoming KYC requests from our counterparties or business relationships. Finally, you will be accountable for monitoring trades to see if any unusual transactions need to be reported to the FIU.

To succeed in this role, you will be combining regulatory knowledge with analytical and communication skills to add value, not bureaucracy, to the business. We are looking for someone with a critical, proactive, and hands-on mentality who is used to working independently but also knows when to reach out for help. 

As an AML Analyst, we also expect you to:

• Be proactive in improving processes
• Collaborate with local Legal and other functions to ensure correct interpretation and implementation of laws and regulations
• Provide periodic training to relevant teams
• Collaborate with Compliance from IMC offices across the globe to design global standards;
• Analyze regulatory developments that have an impact on the KYC process
• Assist with regulatory assessments and regulatory audits.
