Case Study : Financial Crime Team
Kind Consultancy had a strong pre-existing relationship with a small but well-established challenger bank who were embarking on a growth journey. They brough their plans to us exclusively and asked for help building out and strengthening their Financial Crime department.
We put together a designated team who had the relevant knowledge and network, who met with the hiring managers overseeing the division and built-up a thorough understanding of the current organisational structure and what the new structure would look like.
The team discussed the 5 Year Plan for the bank as a whole, and the role of Financial Crime within that plan, to make sure anyone we brought to the client would be aligned in their long-term goals.
Our client was looking to build out a new Transaction Monitoring team, we spent time to understand specific skills, knowledge, experience, and qualifications that the client wanted to see in candidates. We mapped out the Financial Crime talent market and built pool of potential candidates, making confidential approaches to understand their experience and personal motivations in detail. From this initial pool we selected a longlist of candidates for further discovery conversations, which we used to decide on the final shortlist to be submitted to the client.
We supported the client and our candidates through the interview process, helping to check times and travel arrangements and share feedback on both sides.
With the interviews complete we successfully placed a new Senior Transactional Monitoring Manager and for Transactional Monitoring Analysts.
Our team continued to keep in touch with all candidates and hiring managers to ensure a smooth onboarding and embedding period.
