Senior EDD Manager

Barclays
Rotherhithe, Greater London
Role: Senior EDD Manager

Location: Canary Wharf, UK

Duration: 6 months

Overall Purpose of the role:

We are currently hiring a Senior EDD Manager to join our 1st Line of Defense Financial Crime team. The core objective of this position is to execute Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) and comprehensive risk assessments on high-risk accounts, with a dedicated focus on correspondent banking and gaming clients. You will be instrumental to our daily operations, driving both the onboarding processes for new accounts and the periodic risk refreshes for existing clients.

Key Responsibilities:

Manage the end-to-end EDD process for both the onboarding of new clients and the refreshing of existing high-risk clients.

Conduct deep-dive EDD on correspondent banking and gaming clients, receiving information to thoroughly assess the risk profile of each client.

Write high-quality, detailed risk reports and recommendations based on your investigative findings.

Present client risk information and reports confidently in risk forums to Managing Director (MD) level stakeholders.

Perform comprehensive PEP (Politically Exposed Person) checks and Sanctions screening (including OFAC), identifying potential PEPs and determining how to confirm or mitigate these risks in alignment with the bank's risk appetite.

Review and utilize industry-standard tools, such as the Wolfsberg Questionnaire, to evaluate the EDD frameworks of other banks and identify any potential risk areas.

Key Skills:

Correspondent Banking Experience: Mandatory experience working with correspondent banking clients (experience from smaller or SME-sized firms is perfectly acceptable). Candidates whose experience is solely in retail banking will not be considered.

Stakeholder Management & Presentation: Proven ability and experience in writing complex reports and presenting findings at risk forums to senior, MD-level stakeholders.

Global Jurisdictional Knowledge: Ideal candidates will have global jurisdictional experience and an understanding of bespoke regional risks and nuances.

EDD & Sanctions Expertise: Strong working knowledge of PEP identification/mitigation processes and global sanctions lists (e.g., OFAC).

Industry Tools: Ability to analyze and interpret pre-answered Wolfsberg Questionnaires completed by MLROs to understand a firm's EDD framework.

Gaming Sector Experience: Experience conducting EDD on gaming clients is a distinct advantage, though not strictly required.
