Business Acceptance Lawyer / Advisor
A leading international law firm is looking for a Business Acceptance Lawyer / Advisor to join its London-based Risk & Compliance team, with a primary focus on conflicts of interest and anti-money laundering (AML).

Key Responsibilities
- Advising on conflicts of interest, including complex and sensitive conflict scenarios, ethical issues, and conflict waivers.
- Conducting and reviewing AML and client due diligence (CDD), including enhanced due diligence for higher-risk clients and matters.
- Supporting the end-to-end new business and matter intake process, ensuring conflicts and AML risks are appropriately identified and mitigated.
- Acting as a key escalation point for conflicts and AML-related queries from fee-earners and business services teams.
- Providing guidance on applicable regulatory and professional conduct requirements impacting client acceptance.
- Liaising with global risk, compliance, and legal teams on cross-border matters.
- Assisting with the development of policies, procedures, and training relating to conflicts and AML.
