Join CFC’s Compliance team and help protect our business and customers from financial crime. We’re hiring a Group Financial Crime Manager (SM&CR Certified Function) to shape and strengthen our financial crime framework across the Group, working closely with senior stakeholders in a fast-paced, technology-led insurance environment.
You’ll support the enhancement, delivery and implementation of CFC’s financial crime framework and controls across the Group.
As a key SME within the second line Compliance team, you’ll provide pragmatic, commercially minded advice to help prevent financial crime across CFC Underwriting and other Group entities, and ensure our policies, standards and approach meet legal and regulatory requirements.
You’ll work closely with the wider Governance team and senior stakeholders across the business.

- Oversee the Group’s sanctions screening solution and approve escalations of screening alerts.
- Analyse complex sanctions cases across UK, EU, US, Canadian and Australian regimes.
- Support and oversee investigations into suspected financial crime incidents/breaches (including fraud), escalating findings and recommendations as needed.
- Review broker additional commission arrangements.
- Horizon scan for financial crime-related developments and communicate key changes at relevant governance forums.
