Do you want to work on complex and pressing challenges—the kind that bring together curious, ambitious, and determined leaders who strive to become better every day? If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place.

Your Impact

In this role, you will conduct essential screenings (e.g., watchlist, media screenings), manage and triage alerts, and provide reports on findings.  
You will work with the Continuous Screening team to perform analyses and identify ethics and compliance risks, escalate red flags where appropriate and determine ways to mitigate risk. You will also assess if any safeguards need to be applied before work can commence.  
You will work on diligence cases and reports with support from more senior colleagues.  As part of this, you will also maintain and (as appropriate) enhance the system of record listing, ensuring accuracy and completeness of data collected and retained on diligence matters. 
Attention to details and collaboration are key aspects of this role. You will collaborate with project teams to coordinate continuous screening of various third parties. You will also collaborate with colleagues from other functions such as Client Service Risk on matters requiring higher level risk reviews, brief findings, and convey judgements to firm Partners and other senior colleagues.  
Finally, you will play a critical role in sustaining and evolving our E&C program and upholding our commitment to integrity and lawful practices.
