The chance:

Every day, critical decisions are made in our government. What if you could use your skills to help them make informed decisions? With all the information available today, it takes a skilled analyst to know how to find and interpret the best data to give their clients the right answers. As a Financial Intelligence Exploitation Analyst, you will use your specialized technical and functional experience and your attention to detail to develop insights, understanding, recommendations, and reports to give your client the actionable information and context they need. If you have strong analytical skills and a problem-solving mindset, we have an opportunity to use those skills to protect our national security and inform our nation’s leaders.

As a Financial Intelligence Exploitation Analyst on our team, you will use your knowledge of international money laundering, threat finance, sanctions evasion, corruption and kleptocracy, and other typologies of illicit finance to guide our clients’ investigations, analyses, enforcement efforts, or partnership engagements.

You will validate information in support of evidentiary and analytical standards and write assessments for presentation to regulators and senior policymakers.

As an authority in your field, your client will look to you for time-critical recommendations, often under pressure. This is an opportunity to grow your expertise, develop new skills in data analysis, research and analytics, analytical writing, brief senior decision makers, share your methodologies with analysts and researchers, and work in the interagency environment to address illicit financial risks to the U.S. financial system. We are focused on growing as a team to provide the best support to our clients, providing you with resources for mentoring and learning new skills and tools.
