Key skills

The Junior KYC Analyst role in business onboarding at Januar requires foundational knowledge and skills in financial compliance, customer onboarding, and transaction monitoring. Candidates should hold a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree or equivalent, demonstrating a solid educational background. The position emphasizes strong execution skills, attention to detail, and a high sense of responsibility to ensure a compliant and smooth customer journey. Key competencies include investigating and onboarding new customers, performing transaction monitoring on both traditional and cryptocurrency payment rails, maintaining and documenting customer information accurately, and handling customer queries effectively. The role also involves conducting virtual inspections and adhering strictly to internal guidelines and regulatory requirements, including compliance with GDPR principles, which is a desirable asset. The analyst must meet internal service level goals for speed and quality, responding to onboarding cases promptly, typically within one to two working days, and contributing to daily transaction monitoring and monthly team targets. Experience handling confidential information is advantageous, reflecting the sensitive nature of compliance work. Working in a compliance-first company specializing in crypto infrastructure, the candidate will benefit from strong team support and professional development tools, ideal for those starting a career in financial compliance. The role is junior level, offering early responsibility and exposure to internal projects within a small, multidisciplinary team of bankers, tech, and crypto specialists. Familiarity with payment institute operations and crypto-related compliance will be beneficial but is not mandatory. Overall, this role suits candidates seeking to build expertise in KYC, AML, and regulatory compliance in a fintech environment focused on crypto and payment services.
