About the Role

The Company is seeking a VP/AML Compliance to lead a dedicated team in monitoring and enforcing anti-money laundering policies and procedures. The successful candidate will be responsible for overseeing the firm's AML compliance program in accordance with the Bank Secrecy Act, USA PATRIOT Act, and relevant FINRA, SEC, and state regulations. This role requires acting as a subject-matter expert on all AML-related matters, designing and optimizing AML data flows, and partnering with technology, operations, and data teams to implement and refine AML systems. The VP/AML Compliance will also manage AML alerts, investigations, and escalations, maintain AML WSPs, and ensure the firm is prepared for and responsive to regulatory exams and inquiries.

Applicants must have broker-dealer experience, a FINRA Series 7 License, and a Series 24 (or the ability to obtain within 4 months of hire). Significant AML experience within a FINRA-registered broker-dealer is essential, as is in-depth knowledge of current FINRA, SEC, state, and related regulations. The role demands a strong background in AML data, systems, and reporting, with familiarity with Actimize or similar platforms being preferred. The ideal candidate will have excellent communication skills, the ability to influence business decisions with risk-based compliance guidance, and a proven track record of building and maintaining strong internal and external relationships.
