  • Lead and manage legal responses to regulatory inquiries, investigations, enforcement actions, and voluntary self-disclosures relating to financial crime
  • Advise on and oversee sanctions-specific matters including license applications, SDN screening, counterparty assessments, and responses to OFAC inquiries
  • Collaborate with the global compliance, investigations, and transaction monitoring teams to identify, assess, and mitigate financial crime legal risks across business lines
  • Review and advise on financial crime implications of new products, partnerships, and market entries; embed legal risk considerations into go-to-market processes
  • Oversee engagement with and management of external legal counsel on financial crime matters globally
  • Develop and maintain financial crime legal policies, frameworks, and guidance materials
  • Monitor global regulatory developments across financial crime disciplines and provide timely, actionable advice to senior management
  • Drive financial crime legal training and awareness initiatives for internal stakeholders

    • Requirements:

  • Qualified attorney with 10+ years of experience specialising in financial crime law, across sanctions, AML/CFT, and related disciplines
  • Deep technical expertise in sanctions, AML/CFT frameworks, and financial crime regulations across major jurisdictions 
  • Proven experience engaging directly with regulatory bodies and law enforcement on financial crime matters (OFAC, FinCEN, FCA, DOJ, etc.)
  • Experience managing voluntary self-disclosures, enforcement actions, and regulatory investigations
  • Strong knowledge of financial crime risks in complex financial products, including digital assets, payments, and trading
  • Exceptional communicator — able to translate complex legal risk into clear, actionable recommendations for senior management and non-legal stakeholders
  • Demonstrated ability to work across jurisdictions and collaborate with legal, compliance, and business teams globally
  • Self-starter with strong business judgement and a pragmatic, solutions-oriented approach
    • Why Binance
