Qualifications, Experience and Expectations

• Experience of or the desire and ability to learn AML compliance.

• Good organisational and multi-tasking abilities.

• Good knowledge of MS Office, SharePoint, OneDrive.

• Good communication skills.

• Fluency in written and spoken English.

• Chinese, or other languages, would be a plus.

 

This list of duties and responsibilities above is not exhaustive. It is intended to describe the general content of, and requirements for, the performance of this job. As such, the role may also include the undertaking of additional tasks as required.
