- Guide and train junior monitoring team members to strengthen overall team capability and review team output for quality control
- Manage shift scheduling across the team to ensure full time-zone coverage
- Liaise with other departments and overseas compliance teams on transaction monitoring/KYC-related workflows and handle day-to-day requests
- Assist in optimizing customer transaction monitoring and KYC processes and procedures
- Review and quality-check team reports
- Prepare work summaries and reporting as required
What we're looking for
- Bachelor's degree or above in Finance, Law, Economics, Computer Science, or a related field; ACAMS, CAMS, or equivalent certification strongly preferred

- Proficiency with data analysis and monitoring tools
- Some experience in team management or mentoring junior members
- Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, including the ability to work with overseas compliance teams
- High sense of responsibility and professional integrity, with strong resilience and stability in a high-intensity compliance environment
Bonus points if you have:
- Direct experience at a crypto exchange or virtual asset service provider (VASP)
- Exposure to multi-jurisdictional compliance frameworks
- Experience contributing to process improvement or workflow optimization initiatives
