Are you curious, motivated, and forward-thinking? At FIS you’ll have the opportunity to work on some of the most challenging and relevant issues in financial services and technology. Our talented people empower us, and we believe in being part of a team that is open, collaborative, entrepreneurial, passionate and above all fun.

Join our Compliance team at FIS to help monitor and enforce global sanctions regulations.

About the team

In this role, you’ll screen customer transactions and profiles for potential matches against sanctions lists, escalate suspected cases, and support procedures to ensure full compliance with laws like OFAC, UK, and EU sanctions regimes.

This is an entry-level role, so we're open to individuals who are keen to learn and develop their compliance expertise or are new to the sanctions space. Though prior experience in sanctions compliance helps, it's not necessary, making it a great opportunity for those looking to start their career in this field.

What you will be doing

• Monitor and analyse alerts generated by sanctions screening systems, documenting rationale and decisions.

• Conduct investigations into potential sanctions hits and escalate confirmed risks to senior Compliance personnel.

• Perform basic due diligence and risk assessments on new and ongoing customers to identify sanctions exposure.

• Assist in developing and refining sanctions screening policies, procedures, and tooling with mentorship from senior team members.

• Provide support by documenting cases, reports, and responding to internal audits or regulatory inquiries.

• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams (e.g., KYC, Transactions, Legal) to verify flagged customers and transactions.

• Support training initiatives and prepare summaries on policy changes and regulatory updates.

What you will bring:

• Strong analytical skills with ability to interpret regulatory guidance (e.g., OFAC, UK/EU sanctions).

• Excellent attention to detail and ability to document decisions clearly and accurately.

• Effective communication skills—both written and verbal—for collaborating with internal stakeholders and regulatory contacts.

Added bonus if you have:

• Familiarity with sanctions compliance systems and basic investigative workflows—training will be provided.

• Certifications such as CAMS, ACAMS, or other relevant AML/Sanctions certifications.

What we offer you:

• Competitive salary, range of benefits designed to help support your lifestyle and wellbeing

• A multifaceted job with a high degree of responsibility and a broad spectrum of opportunities

• A modern, international work environment with a dedicated and motivated team

• A broad range of professional education and personal development possibilities

• The chance to work on some of the most challenging, relevant issues in financial services & technology
