More about our mission and what we offer.

We’re looking for a dedicated financial crime specialist to join our suspicious activity reporting team in Budapest, Hungary. This role is a unique opportunity to have an impact on Wise’s mission and grow as a specialist in financial crime. Your mission is to protect our customers and Wise by reporting suspicious activity.

Your mission: to safeguard our customers and Wise by detecting and reporting suspicious activity.

If you’re passionate about financial crime prevention, eager to grow in a dynamic and international environment, and ready to make a real impact — we’d love to have you on our team.

Key Responsibilities:

• Review and Analyse: Review customer accounts and transaction patterns for unusual or suspicious activity, identify potential red flags related to money laundering, fraud, or other financial crimes. Provide input on process improvements and backlog exercises.
• Prepare Suspicious Activity Reports: Draft and submit reports based on findings, ensuring that all necessary details are accurately documented and submitted in compliance with regulatory requirements.
• Collaborate: Work closely with other financial crime and compliance teams and departments to ensure that suspicious activities are properly investigated, documented and reported. Act as a point of escalation for complex cases from other operations teams, providing guidance and expertise.
• Adhere to Regulatory Guidelines: Stay up-to-date on financial crime regulations, laws, regional best practices, and related reporting requirements.
• Maintain Confidentiality: Safeguard sensitive information, ensuring all reports and documentation are handled with the highest level of confidentiality and integrity.
• Communicate: Liaise with financial institutions and law enforcement agencies as needed.
• KPIs: Take a proactive approach to consistently achieve individual and team targets (KPIs, SLAs, QA), demonstrating a strong commitment to both quality and speed. This includes meeting deadlines reliably, optimizing processing times, and taking full ownership and accountability for all responsibilities to deliver exceptional results.
• Continuous Learning: Participate in training sessions and remain knowledgeable about emerging trends and tools in financial crime detection.

• Language Skills: You must be able to communicate clearly and professionally in English (other languages are a plus).
• Experience: Previous experience in a financial crime-related field (AML, fraud detection) is a plus, but not required. We are open to candidates who are highly detail-oriented, willing to learn, and have transferable skills.
• Strong Attention to Detail: Ability to handle routine tasks with high accuracy and maintain consistency in work product, even under pressure.
• Analytical Skills: Ability to analyze financial transactions, identify patterns, and make informed decisions based on regulatory requirements and risk factors.
• Communication Skills: Strong written and verbal communication skills, particularly for drafting clear, detailed reports.
• Time Management: Ability to work effectively under tight deadlines and manage multiple priorities with precision and accuracy.
• Ethical Integrity: A strong understanding of the importance of confidentiality and the ethical considerations in financial crime investigations.
• Autonomy: This role requires taking initiative and effectively resolving issues within established frameworks.
