A globally leading investment management business with a significant international footprint is seeking an experienced AML Risk Manager to take ownership of its AML/CTF function in Brisbane.
This is a rare opportunity to join a high-calibre, globally aligned organisation that operates at scale - yet offers the visibility, influence and impact of a boutique environment. It is genuinely a one-of-one opportunity in the Brisbane market.
The Business
Operating across global markets, this firm combines institutional-grade governance with an entrepreneurial, high-performance culture. The Brisbane office plays a meaningful role within the broader international platform, offering exposure to sophisticated products, complex client structures and cross-border regulatory considerations.
They are now investing further into their Risk & Compliance capability - and AML is a key priority.
The Opportunity
This is not a maintenance role. You will be the dedicated AML specialist, acting as the subject matter expert across the organisation and driving the continued uplift of the AML/TF framework.
With strong foundations already in place, the focus now is on enhancement, maturity and proactive risk management - particularly across onboarding, ongoing due diligence and higher-risk client oversight.
Key Responsibilities
* Act as the AML/TF SME across the business
* Enhance policies, systems and controls in line with AUSTRAC requirements
* Oversee and strengthen Customer Due Diligence (CDD), Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD), ongoing monitoring and trigger reviews, and transaction monitoring oversight
* Conduct reviews and investigations into higher ML/TF risk matters
* Manage regulatory reporting (including SMRs and annual compliance reporting)
* Deliver insightful reporting to senior leadership
* Build AML capability and awareness across stakeholder groups
About You
* 4+ years' AML/CTF experience within financial services
* Strong working knowledge of AUSTRAC obligations (ideally)
* Experience within banking, wealth or investment management
* Commercial mindset with the confidence to engage and challenge stakeholders
* Systems and data confident
You're someone who wants to own AML end-to-end, not sit adjacent to it.
Why This Role Stands Out
* Global investment management exposure
* Direct access to senior leadership
* High-visibility role in a sophisticated business
* Genuine mandate to uplift and shape the framework
* Brisbane-based, rare market opportunity
