Financial crime senior consultant

FC:SC

Avyse Senior Consultants take a leading role in all our client work. You’ll be front and centre of our client interactions – running projects, taking responsibility for delivery and managing client relationships. The role is broad and you will have to roll your sleeves up and get stuck in. Senior Consultants will have direct responsibility for delivering high-quality client work, pitch decks and propositions, often supervising the work of others.
Senior Consultants will be technically proficient in financial crime matters. You might be a deep subject matter expert in one particular area or have breadth across the financial crime framework. You will have, or be forming, clear ideas about your niche / specialism in the market place. Even more important than your technical expertise is your attitude. Senior consultants think for themselves, address potential risks before they become issues and understand that the team is far greater than any individual. Our senior consultants also have a strong desire to propel the business to the next level.
