AML Audit Specialist
for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. No job title heading. No Job ID. Remove boilerplate, EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. Preserve substantive info. We need to parse the job description. Job Description text: "Job#: 3051418 Job Description: We are seeking a Manager to join our Risk Consulting practice supporting large Global Banking clients.

Then after that there is EEO boilerplate and benefits overview etc. We need to extract Benefits section if present. The benefits overview is present: "Everforth Apex Benefits Overview: Everforth Apex offers a range of supplemental benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life, disability, and other insurance plans that offer an optional layer of financial protection. We offer an ESPP (employee stock purchase program) and a 401K program which allows you to contribute typically within 30 days of starting, with a company match after 12 months of tenure.

You can access a full list of our benefits, programs, support teams and resources within our ‘Welcome Packet’ as well, which an Everforth Apex team member can provide." Thus we have Benefits content. Pay and Schedule: Not mentioned. So we should not include Pay or Schedule sections. We need sections: About the role (maybe from first paragraph), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe Required Qualifications), Qualifications (maybe Preferred Qualifications?), Skills (maybe combine skills from responsibilities? But we can include a Skills section if there is explicit skill list. The posting includes "Strong project management, stakeholder management, written communication, and presentation skills." etc. Could be placed under Skills. But we need to decide. We have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could map to Requirements (maybe Required Qualifications) and Qualifications (maybe Preferred). Or we could combine into Requirements and Qualifications sections. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits. We need to avoid filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present. We need to preserve all substantive info; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the details as is, but we can format into
or
- . For lists, we should use
- . For prose,
. We need to decide what goes where. About the role: The initial paragraph(s) describing the role: "We are seeking a Manager to join our Risk Consulting practice supporting large Global Banking clients. This professional will lead and execute risk-based AML Internal Audit engagements within complex financial services organizations. The role is focused on Third Line of Defense activities and requires a strong understanding of AML regulations, Internal Audit methodology, audit documentation standards, regulatory expectations, and financial crimes risk management. The ideal candidate will have deep AML Internal Audit experience, including transaction monitoring and investigations , and the ability to independently manage audits from planning and risk assessment through reporting, issue validation, and remediation testing." We can put that as About the role. Responsibilities: The bullet list after "Key Responsibilities". We need to extract each responsibility sentence. They are separated by periods but some are long. We'll split into list items. List: - Lead and execute AML Internal Audit engagements across large global banking organizations. - Manage the full audit lifecycle, including risk assessment, planning, scoping, walkthroughs, test plan development, fieldwork, issue identification, reporting, and validation testing. - Apply risk-based audit methodology, professional auditing standards, sampling techniques, and testing approaches throughout engagements. - Develop audit programs, risk and control matrices (RCMs), process narratives, testing strategies, and test scripts. - Prepare comprehensive, well-supported workpapers that clearly document testing performed, evidence reviewed, results, and conclusions. - Assess control design and operating effectiveness related to AML and Financial Crimes risks. - Identify control weaknesses, regulatory risks, and process gaps and provide practical recommendations for improvement. - Draft clear, concise audit observations and reports, including root cause analysis and corrective action recommendations. - Present results to senior stakeholders and effectively challenge management responses when appropriate. - Perform issue validation and remediation testing related to audit findings, MRAs, consent orders, and regulatory actions. - Partner with Compliance, Risk Management, Financial Crimes, Operations, Technology, and Internal Audit stakeholders. - Review junior team members' work and provide coaching to ensure quality and consistency. We'll put each as
- .
Requirements: Required Qualifications bullet list.
List:
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field.
- 7+ years of Internal Audit experience within a large financial institution, global bank, or consulting firm.
- 5+ years of direct AML Internal Audit experience.
- Demonstrated experience independently leading risk-based audits from planning through reporting and issue validation.
- Strong knowledge of Internal Audit methodology, workpaper standards, audit documentation requirements, sampling methodologies, and quality assurance expectations.
- Hands-on experience developing audit programs, RCMs, test scripts, workpapers, control assessments, findings, and final reports.
- Deep knowledge of BSA/AML regulations, OFAC and sanctions requirements, and financial crimes controls.
- Experience evaluating control design and operating effectiveness and supporting conclusions with sufficient and appropriate evidence.
- Strong project management, stakeholder management, written communication, and presentation skills.
- Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, highly regulated environment.
Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications bullet list.
List:
- CIA, CAMS, CFCS, CPA, or other relevant certification.
- Experience supporting regulatory remediation programs, consent orders, MRAs, and issue validation activities.
- Experience with audit management tools such as TeamMate, Archer, or similar platforms.
- Familiarity with AML technologies including Actimize, Verafin, SAS AML, Oracle FCCM, or comparable solutions.
Skills: Could we extract skills from responsibilities or qualifications? The instruction says use Skills section if posting has real specific content for it. The posting includes skill mentions like "Strong project management, stakeholder management, written communication, and presentation skills." That's already in Required Qualifications. Could we still have a Skills section? Might be redundant but allowed if we have content. However we should avoid duplication? Not explicitly prohibited, but we should preserve all substantive info; we could keep skills in Required Qualifications and not duplicate. Better to not create a Skills section if we already covered skills elsewhere. But we could still create a Skills section with those skill items extracted from responsibilities/qualifications. However that would duplicate info. The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." Duplication is not inventing or summarizing away detail; it's repeating detail. Might be okay but could be considered unnecessary. The instruction also says "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So better to not create a Skills section if we can incorporate skills into Requirements or Responsibilities. Since we already have Required Qualifications includes skills, we can skip Skills section.
Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Benefits.
Now Benefits: We need to extract the benefits overview paragraph. It's a prose description; we can put as
. Could also bullet list but it's prose. We'll keep as
. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, application instructions, etc. So we strip those. Now produce HTML fragment:
