Compliance Coordinator

About The Role:

Join NEXT as a Compliance Coordinator and play a key role in safeguarding the integrity of our supplier and customer network. We're looking for a detail-oriented and proactive individual to oversee the KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) processes for over 5,000 suppliers and customers.

Based within Finance Operations, this business-critical role supports a team of six and works closely with Compliance, Legal, and Business Directors. You'll manage end-to-end compliance processes, applying strong due diligence and enhanced due diligence (EDD) to assess suppliers from an AML and fraud risk perspective. You'll continuously improve monitoring practices to stay ahead of emerging risks. Strong judgement, data skills, and collaboration are essential, especially as we transition to a new ERP system.

Join us in shaping secure and efficient operations across Retail, Online, and Total Platform Partners.

What you will be doing:

• Manage and coordinate all KYC and AML-related steps for supplier onboarding or changes, ensuring timely and accurate completion across all stakeholders.
• Conduct in-depth due diligence and EDD reviews, escalating issues where necessary and applying sound judgement.
• Monitor and assess ongoing risk across our supplier and customer base, enhancing business-as-usual (BAU) processes to address emerging compliance threats.
• Use data and analytics platforms to streamline risk oversight and strengthen decision-making.
• Support the team through the implementation of a new ERP system and contribute to process development during this transition.

About You:

• Highly organised, analytical thinker with strong communication skills and a calm, professional approach.
• You'll enjoy working in a fast-paced, evolving environment where you can make a real impact.
• Excellent attention to detail with strong analytical and reasoning abilities.
• Proven organisational and time management skills.
• Comfortable working across multiple stakeholders, including senior management.
• Logical, methodical problem-solver with a collaborative mindset.
• Adaptable and resilient with the ability to manage changing priorities.

Experience

• Experience in supplier due diligence and onboarding processes.
• Working knowledge of AML and KYC compliance within a regulated environment (ideally financial services).

• Studying towards a certified compliance qualification (desirable but not essential).

   

This is an office-based role.
