Nationwide is undergoing significant and ambitious change as we continue to evolve how we deliver value to our millions of members. This is an exciting opportunity to join our Economic Crime Risk & Compliance team, a key part of the second line of defence, ensuring the Society delivers its strategy safely while balancing risk and reward.
As a Manager in Economic Crime Advisory, you will play a pivotal role in leading Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF), Counter-Proliferation Financing (CPF), and Sanctions advisory activity across the organisation. With a particular focus on retail products and customer journeys, you will work closely with teams across Economic Crime Operations, Payments, Products and Customer Support to ensure risks are effectively understood and managed within risk appetite.
A core part of the role involves identifying and assessing current and emerging economic crime risks, including those relating to proliferation financing, and translating these into clear, practical internal policies and standards aligned to regulatory expectations. You will provide expert advice, support, and constructive challenge to senior stakeholders and Accountable Executives, helping them interpret and embed controls within their areas of responsibility.
You will also oversee the effectiveness of these controls, ensuring that risks, issues, and non-compliances are appropriately identified, escalated, and managed through robust governance and mitigation plans. Working across the business, you will help embed strong economic crime practices into processes and customer relationships, driving consistency and continuous improvement.
