Financial Crime Senior Investigator
As a Financial Crime Senior Investigator, you’ll be part of Financial Crime Operations within Risk Operations, playing a vital role in safeguarding Nationwide and its members from financial crime. This includes protecting the organisation against money laundering, terrorist financing, sanctions breaches, and bribery and corruption, while delivering first-line prevention and detection activity that makes a real difference.
You’ll bring a sharp eye for detail and the confidence to clearly articulate your findings, whether in writing or conversation. Excellent time management and prioritisation skills are essential, as you’ll work autonomously, adapt to regular change, support colleagues, and help maintain high standards through quality checking and involvement in project work. Just as important are your communication and stakeholder management skills, enabling you to build trusted relationships across the business.
In this role, you’ll act as a financial crime specialist for first-line colleagues, providing expert support and serving as the first point of escalation for financial crime concerns. We’re looking for someone who thrives on problem-solving, enjoys collaborating with others, and takes pride in delivering thorough, accurate work in a fast-paced and evolving environment.
