Your role

• Analyse files related to account openings, both materially (PEP, Close to PEP, High Risk, Medium Risk & Low Risk) and in terms of formal and tax aspects (FATCA, CRS, etc.).
• Draft summary documents concerning account opening requests and present them to the various Bank committees.
• Advise managers, particularly on the account opening process.
• Ensure compliance with regulations (LBA, OBA-FINMA, CDB), especially in the context of anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML).

Your profile

• At least 5 years’ experience in a similar role within a private bank in Switzerland.
• University or banking education; a certificate in compliance management is an advantage.
• Strong interest in regulatory aspects, particularly in the AML field. Very good knowledge of the LBA, OBA-FINMA and the Banks’ Due Diligence Agreement, as well as its case law.
• Proficiency in common IT tools, notably the Avaloq banking software and MS Office.
• Fluent in French and English; knowledge of another language is an asset.
• Residence in Switzerland required.

Rigorous, honest and discreet, while possessing a curious mind and a genuine sense of client service, you demonstrate initiative and commitment. You show a strong interest in all regulatory aspects and are capable of enforcing and applying regulations as well as internal directives strictly, while placing business satisfaction at the heart of your priorities. Organised and methodical, you enjoy teamwork and contribute, through your attitude, to maintaining an excellent working atmosphere.
