1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

I work within the compliance industry. Day to day activities include investigating alerts to ensure that they are in line with the customers profile or if they are deemed suspicious reporting them to another team. This allows the bank to ensure they re being compliant to AML/CTF regulation.
