The CRA Approvals and Escalations Team is new sub-team within the Client Assessment Team.

This team will provide technical support to the Client Assessment Team to make first line of defence decisions on cases including KYC without the need to refer these to the Financial Crime Team. A working knowledge of KPMG’s risk systems and processes and application of the Money Laundering Regulations is therefore required. The role will also be responsible for reviewing and approving low risk CRAs – this activity is currently performed by experienced Business Approvers and as such, excellent judgement is required.

This role will report into the C grade and will be responsible for approving the CRAs and reviewing the work of the D1s in the team.
