KYC & AML Analyst - Client Operations

Not Your Typical KYC & AML Analyst Role

This isn’t just another checklist-ticking compliance job. No siloed departments. No coasting along with outdated processes. This is about being on the front line of a fast-scaling global FinTech, building and operating the critical KYC/AML processes that enable our compliant growth. Fast.

We’re Navro, a rapidly scaling B2B payments startup, and we’re looking for an organised, detailed, self-starting KYC & AML Analyst to join our Client Operations Team. This is your chance to directly impact our ability to safely onboard clients across multiple jurisdictions, contribute to operational excellence, and be part of a dynamic, cross-functional team. You won’t just follow procedures; you’ll help improve them. This isn’t a passenger role. We’re bringing you in for your expertise, your meticulous attention to detail, and your drive to get things done right in a fast-paced environment.

Who We Are 

We are transforming payments for global platforms and e-commerce businesses. As the world’s first payments curation platform, we simplify cross-border transactions by uniting best-in-class infrastructure into a seamless ecosystem, enabling businesses to scale and operate effortlessly across borders. Cross-border workforce payments are slow, expensive, and outdated. We can’t be. Businesses rely on us to pay their people accurately and on time - contractors, freelancers, and employees across the globe. When we say we’ll deliver, failure isn’t an option. If we don’t do what we said we would, people don’t get paid - not just a transaction delayed, but real workers left without wages. That means a developer in Argentina missing their paycheck, a freelancer in the Philippines unable to pay rent, or a contractor in Poland unable to get to work. No excuses. No passengers. No tolerance for politics or mediocrity.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a KYC & AML Analyst with a strong background in first-line client due diligence and a deep understanding of onboarding regulations across the US, UK, and EU. This role will sit at the heart of our Client Operations team, with a heavy emphasis on KYC/AML processes, while also supporting Customer and Payments Operations as part of a close-knit, high-performing unit.

You will play a key role in the first line of defense, ensuring smooth and compliant onboarding of clients in a fast-paced FinTech environment. This is an exciting opportunity to make a real impact while growing your career within a collaborative startup culture.

Requirements

What you will be doing:

• Lead KYC onboarding efforts by conducting Customer Due Diligence (CDD), Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD), and Ongoing Monitoring for clients and beneficial owners
• Verify client documentation in accordance with KYC/AML requirements across multiple jurisdictions (UK, EU, US)
  Conduct screening for PEPs, sanctions, and adverse media; escalate suspicious activity to the MLRO as needed
• Liaise directly with clients to request and validate information necessary to understand their business and ownership structures
• Review and investigate transaction monitoring alerts and assist in preparing escalations where appropriate
• Ensure all client data is accurately collected, stored, and managed in line with internal policies and regulatory requirements
• Support customer operations and payments operations when required, particularly where compliance or documentation touchpoints are involved
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Compliance, Product, Engineering, and Banking Partners to ensure seamless onboarding and ongoing support
• Stay up to date on relevant regulatory developments and assist in aligning internal procedures with evolving rules
• Act as a key contributor to process improvements and help scale operational excellence as the company grows
  

What We’re Looking For:

⚡ Experienced Analyst: 3+ years’ experience in AML/KYC operations or client onboarding, ideally within a regulated FinTech or payment services firm.

⚡ Regulatory Knowledge: Proven experience with EU/UK/US KYC/AML regulations and client onboarding frameworks.

⚡ Tool Proficiency: Hands-on experience using common KYC/AML tools (e.g., LexisNexis, RiskNarrative, TrueBiz, ComplyAdvantage, etc.).

⚡ Detail-Obsessed: You don’t miss a thing. Your meticulous attention to detail in reviewing documentation and data is critical.

⚡ Proactive & Efficient: A proactive mindset with the proven ability to manage workload efficiently and accurately, even under pressure.

⚡ Clear Communicator: Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to summarize complex information clearly and confidently for internal stakeholders and liaise effectively with clients.

⚡ Collaborator Extraordinaire: A genuine team player with a startup mentality – flexible, adaptable, and willing to support different operational areas when needed.

⚡ Problem Solver: Strong analytical skills to investigate complex structures or alerts and identify key risks.

⚡ Certification (Bonus): Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist (CAMS) or equivalent qualification is a strong plus.

⚡ Payments/CS Context (Bonus): Experience supporting payments or customer service functions alongside compliance tasks is advantageous.

Grit & Passion: You may not possess every single required skill listed, and that's perfectly fine. If you have most of them, along with grit, passion, a desire to learn quickly, and the willingness to get stuck in, we encourage you to apply
