The Role
As our Compliance Analyst in Mexico, you’ll support the local compliance program, helping ensure adherence to both local and international AML/CFT standards. You’ll monitor regulatory developments, assist with investigations, and help maintain ARQ’s relationship with regulators, auditors, and banking partners.
This is a hands-on role: you’ll work KYC/AML alerts and investigations, support the preparation of regulatory notices (avisos) to the UIF, and collaborate with risk, operations, and product teams to embed compliance into everyday processes.
What You’ll Do
1.
Investigations: Review KYC alerts, biometric mismatches, and potential fraud using official databases (RENAPO, SAT, INE) and KYC tools (Jumio, Persona).
2.
Regulatory Reporting: Support preparation and submission of Reportes de Operaciones Relevantes (ROR), Inusuales (ROI), and Internas Preocupantes (ROIP) to the UIF via the SPPLD portal; help ensure timely responses to CNBV, SAT/UIF, and law enforcement requests.
3.
Transaction Monitoring: Assess suspicious transactions, monitor PEP/sanctions/adverse media alerts, and escalate risks appropriately.
4.
Process Improvement: Help enhance monitoring and reporting controls to detect and mitigate emerging threats.
5.
Compliance Culture: Work with internal teams to strengthen AML/CFT controls and ensure regulatory requirements are integrated into operations.
6.
Stakeholder Support: Assist in liaising with regulators, auditors, and banking partners, ensuring clarity and transparency.
