About InvestEngineInvestEngine is a UK investment platform that makes it simple and low-cost for people to build long-term wealth with ETFs, through ISAs, pensions and general investment accounts. As our client base grows, our Operations team in Georgia plays a key role in making sure every client is onboarded and monitored safely and to a high standard.
About the roleYou'll join our first-line Financial Crime Operations team, reporting to the Financial Crime Operations Manager. You'll make sure new clients — individuals and businesses — are onboarded accurately, quickly and in line with regulation, and that client activity is monitored so anything suspicious is investigated and escalated properly.
This is a high-volume, detail-sensitive role with clear SLAs. You'll work closely with Compliance, Operations and Customer Experience.
What you'll do- Complete transaction monitoring and enhanced due diligence (EDD) reviews, investigating unusual activity and escalating suspicions correctly

- Keep internal registers and client records accurate and up to date
- Work with Compliance, Operations and Customer Experience to resolve escalations within SLA
- Spot inefficiencies and suggest practical improvements to our processes
The team also- Reviews and process new client applications for individuals and businesses, including identity, address, bank account and company checks
- Carries out PEP and sanctions screening at onboarding and as part of ongoing monitoring
What you'll bring- Experience in a detail-focused, high-volume operations role — ideally onboarding, KYC/AML, compliance operations or similar in financial services
- Excellent attention to detail: you catch errors in documents and data and double-check before you submit
- Strong time management: you handle large volumes without missing deadlines
- Clear, professional written and spoken English
- Good risk awareness — you know when something doesn't look right and you flag it
- A proactive, collaborative way of working: you take ownership instead of waiting for direction
Nice to have: knowledge of KYC/AML, and experience with PEP and sanctions screening.
