Role: Financial Crime Training
Location: Birmingham
Duration: 6 Months PAYE
Overall purpose of the role
The overall purpose of this role is to build and establish a brand-new training framework from scratch to enhance role-based Financial Crime training. Driven by regulatory findings from the Federal Reserve and FCA Skilled Persons reviews, this position focuses on ensuring that specific employees—such as Relationship Managers and KYC Analysts—understand their unique Financial Crime risks and know exactly how to spot and escalate them.
Key Skills
- Financial Crime or Compliance domain knowledge: Deep understanding of the field to accurately identify risks (such as fraud) and train staff on key regulations on the horizon (such as EU AML Authority and virtual asset regulations).
- Tangible training expertise: Proven experience in instructional design and creating training content, going beyond simply writing policy documents.
- Stakeholder engagement: Strong communication and negotiation skills to manage potential pushback from line managers and Business Management teams up to the Director level regarding the amount of required training.
- Good governance skillset: Experience in developing oversight of controls, including designing, testing, and ensuring they are working properly. Alternatively, solid experience in Financial Crime policy or writing audit and regulatory closure packs is acceptable.
- Evaluation and measurement: Understanding of methodologies for evaluating training effectiveness over time, such as tracking improvements in QA scores or training pass rates.
- Desirable certifications: Relevant Financial Crime certifications and formal instructional design training (such as Cornerstone academy courses) are preferred but not strictly required.

Diversity
Barclays aims to foster a culture where individuals of all backgrounds feel confident in bringing their whole selves to work, feel included and their talents are nurtured, empowering them to contribute fully to Barclays vision and goals.
Hybrid Working
Barclays is currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in. Barclays is flexible on how this works and it may continue to change and evolve. Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. Barclays also has a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally are able to request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances
