Job description

What we do?

Aion Bank is a fully regulated European bank and credit institution, combining Vodeno’s cutting-edge, private blockchain-based platform with its ECB banking license, strong balance sheet, and deep regulatory expertise. Our mission is to provide a comprehensive suite of embedded banking solutions, enabling businesses to seamlessly integrate financial services into their offerings.

As part of the UniCredit Group, Aion Bank and Vodeno will accelerate their digital banking offer in strategic markets and will act as a sandbox for innovation for the wider UniCredit Group. Aion Bank and Vodeno's existing Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) offering across key European markets, including Germany and Poland, will see the bank embed its services - ranging from account access and deposits to lending, payments and loyalty programs - directly into non-banking digital platforms, facilitating seamless customer experiences.

At Aion Bank, our biggest strength is our people—a team of highly intelligent, creative, and ambitious professionals who thrive in a fast-paced, innovative environment. We believe in delivering results while fostering a culture of passion and collaboration.

We are currently looking for a Financial Crime Prevention Expert ready to join our adventure, share our ambition and help shape the future of digital banking.
What you will be doing?
Act as a senior subject matter expert in the Anti-Money Laundering area, providing expert guidance on complex cases and high-risk scenarios.
Lead deep-dive investigations of suspicious activity, including structuring, layering, trade-based money laundering, and high-risk jurisdictions.
Contribute to the design and optimization of AML monitoring scenarios, customer risk scoring models, and name screening parameters.
Provide expertise during onboarding and periodic reviews of high-risk clients, including beneficial ownership analysis and KYC enhancements.
Collaborate with Compliance, Risk, Legal, and business units to ensure consistent application of AML policies and procedures.
Analyze emerging typologies, regulatory changes (e.g. EU AML Package, FATF publications), and integrate them into the control framework.
Represent the Financial Crime team in audits, regulatory reviews, and internal governance meetings.
Deliver training and mentoring to junior analysts on AML investigations, typology analysis, and documentation standards.
Contribute to broader financial crime risk assessments and strategic initiatives across the bank.
Skills you should have
7+ years of experience in AML/CTF within banking or financial institutions, ideally in a second-line or expert function.
Strong knowledge of global AML regulations, typologies, and best practices (e.g. EU AMLD, FATF, Wolfsberg Group, UN Sanctions).
Proven track record of handling complex investigations, high-risk customers, and regulatory escalations.
Experience with transaction monitoring systems (e.g., Actimize, SAS, FICO, or similar), name screening tools, and case management platforms.
Ability to critically assess risk, escalate effectively, and make decisions in uncertain or high-pressure situations.
Strong communication and presentation skills in English; capable of engaging with senior stakeholders and regulators.
Relevant certifications such as CAMS, ICA AML, or equivalent are highly desirable.
Academic background in Law, Finance, Compliance, Criminology, or related field; postgraduate education is a plus.
