TM Quality Checker

Quality Assurance Analyst [ 36+ months conducting TM investigations]

You will perform Quality Assurance reviews of completed complex Transaction Monitoring (TM) investigations, covering money laundering, terrorist financing and tax evasion. You will be a respected authority on what constitutes a high quality investigation. As a subject matter expert, you will have two objectives: 1) to help investigators develop their skills by providing high quality and constructive feedback on their work, highlighting investigation that is both good and that needs improvement; 2) to provide internal and external stakeholders and regulators with tangible and credible evidence that demonstrates the quality of the bank's TM investigation capability.

You will:

Perform reviews of completed investigations on complex TM alerts and cases, assessing the quality of the investigation and resulting documentation in line with ING's TM Global Standard Investigation Process and Procedures (GSTMPPs) and ING's Quality Assurance Process and Procedures. You will assess whether the investigator has made the right decision, used their judgement taking a risk based approach appropriately, and whether they have followed ING process and procedure correctly.

Consider the data the investigator has included in their investigation, the analysis they have done, the thought process they have followed and the rationale they have used in reaching their conclusion, as well as the quality of their "write up" and the degree to which the conclusion is supported by evidence.

Document your findings appropriately to give the investigator constructive feedback, highlighting what is good and what needs improvement, seeking to help the investigator improve, whilst also providing an objective assessment of the quality of their work.
