About us
At PwC Australia you will drive trusted, insightful regulatory reporting that safeguards the firm and fosters a culture of integrity, empowering leaders to combat financial crime with confidence and purpose. As an AML Regulatory & Governance Reporting professional in our Risk and Ethics team, you'll play a vital role in delivering high-quality, timely, and insightful regulatory and governance reporting. Your work will enable the firm's governing body, Risk Committee, and AMLCO to effectively oversee the AML/CTF program while ensuring robust compliance and risk mitigation in line with regulatory expectations.
Why PwC?
At PwC Australia, your skills meet purpose. We tackle big challenges across industries like finance, technology, energy, and health—giving you the chance to make a real impact. Here, your growth is our priority. You’ll work with leading teams, explore new technologies, and unlock your full potential.
Join a global community of more than 370,000 people who value bold ideas, collaboration, and lasting change. Together, we’re building trust and shaping the future.
What you’ll do:
- Lead the design, development, and delivery of regular AML/CTF/Sanctions reports to the Board, Risk Committee, and senior leadership, including succinct “AUSTRAC Readiness” updates that reference regulatory expectations.
- Own the management of Unusual Matter Reviews (UMR) and Suspicious Matter Reporting (SMR) processes, ensuring timely, high-quality assessments, robust quality assurance, clear decision-making, prevention of tipping-off, and accurate regulatory submissions.
- Oversee preparation of the annual compliance report and other statutory regulatory submissions with robust quality assurance and tipping-off controls.
- Collaborate closely with the AMLCO, business units, and second-line functions to ensure reporting and suspicious activity processes are accurate, proportionate, and commercially relevant.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
