The Compliance team ensures our Cyprus operations meet CySEC and EU regulatory expectations across AML/CFT, MiFID conduct, Market Abuse, and data protection, enabling the business to scale safely.

Own all AMLCO deliverables for the Cyprus MiFID entity, including the Annual AMLCO Report, AML Risk Assessment, and periodic financial crime compliance reporting to senior management and the Board.

Lead second-line monitoring and testing across AML/CFT and broader conduct/compliance areas, documenting results, findings, and remediation actions for internal governance bodies.

• Drive regulatory engagement with CySEC, the FIU, and competent authorities, coordinating responses to information requests, inspections, and thematic reviews. Partner with first-line teams to assess the effectiveness of onboarding, KYC/EDD, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring, and STR/SAR reporting controls, escalating gaps and driving remediation.

Build and maintain local compliance and AML/CFT policies, procedures, and frameworks aligned with EU/Cyprus requirements (MiFID II, AMLD, MiCA) and group-level standards.
