Overall job purpose
Working within our central specialist Anti-Money Laundering team as part of a wider risk, compliance, and assurance teams, you would perform critical operational tasks to support service line teams as they evaluate client and engagement take-on and due diligence.
Our continued growth and commitment to evolve RSM into a digitally-savvy business, with infrastructure fit for the future, presents a rare opportunity to play a role in transforming our client acceptance processes which support a critical (and regulated) element of the firm’s operations.
This is our prospective client’s first interaction with RSM’s systems and processes, so it is essential that we are efficient and effective in delivering this key risk mitigation step, whilst also providing a premium experience.
If you have a keen eye for detail, enjoy providing excellent customer service, and building relationships across a large and diverse organisation, then this role could be a good fit.
We operate a flexible hybrid-working model in the team, focusing on being where we can most effectively provide support to the service lines, which can occasionally involve travel to UK-based offices.
Key Responsibilities
The key responsibilities of the Compliance Assistant would include:
- Reviewing matters escalated to the AML team to ensure that risks have been appropriately identified, evaluated, and documented.
- Performing ongoing monitoring for our clients, evaluating potential ‘hits’ and working with the client team to determine appropriate actions.
- Assisting with ID verification, either through evaluating exceptions and determining appropriate resolutions, or working directly with the client to obtain appropriate evidence to support the level of risk.
Are you someone who thrives on variety, loves learning new things, and enjoys connecting with people? If you can spot inefficiencies in everyday life and are passionate about making improvements, this role is perfect for you!
We value diverse experiences and perspectives. Here’s what we’re looking for in our ideal candidate:
- Excellent communication skills, specifically capable of being clear, concise, and precise.
- A natural curiosity and desire to get to the bottom of things.
- A flexible and adaptable working style and enjoy learning and working as a team.
- A desire to provide world-class customer service.
- A keen eye for detail but is also able to stand back and consider the specific context and circumstances of a case.
Within RSM, we promote from within wherever possible, listen to your career goals and aspirations, and support you in your short- and long-term goals.
We offer a flexible reward and benefits package that will help you have fulfilling experience, both in and out of work.
- Hybrid and flexible working
- 25 days holiday (with the option of purchasing additional days)
- Lifestyle, health, and wellbeing including financial wellbeing benefits such as financial tools, electric car scheme and access to a virtual GP
- Access to a suite of 300+ courses on demand developed by our inhouse talent development team

At RSM, we want to create a strong sense of belonging so that people of all identities, backgrounds, and cultures feel they can bring their true self to work. Our clients come from all walks of life. We aim to achieve that same diversity of background, experience and perspective in our own teams, so that we can genuinely understand our client's needs. Diverse teams bring a broader range of ideas and insights to work. That's why we're working together to ensure our firm's principles and processes support a firm culture that embraces difference and strengthens inclusion.
