BeyondFS is a specialist management consultancy working with financial institutions to design and deliver world-class client onboarding and client lifecycle management functions. We established the business in 2018, based on the shared belief that we could bring something different and compelling to the Financial Services market; a consultancy offering that would deliver better outcomes for clients.
Our Associates work with us on a contract basis alongside our permanent team, and we are always interested to add to our Associate network. We are committed to engaging the best people; the wellbeing and personal happiness of our team is a top priority and our values-driven, transparent culture is designed to enable our people to thrive.
- Prior experience as a consultant (6+ years) within a recognised management consultancy firm. A deep understanding of how to deliver and/or lead consultancy engagements is absolutely essential.
- Expertise in client onboarding and or lifecycle management. This might include specific knowledge of AML and/or KYC. Knowledge of client refresh cycles (ongoing due diligence) would be beneficial.
- Strong project and programme management experience, with the ability to work effectively within mixed BeyondFS and client teams.
- A professional, high quality and highly organised approach with exceptional verbal and written communication skills.
- A collaborative and team-orientated style - we have no room for big egos, we succeed and fail as a team!
- Flexibility to work on-site with clients as appropriate, predominantly in London but with the ability to travel to Europe if needed for specific workshops and meetings. You will also spend some time working for home.
We are particularly looking for an Associate with the following skillset;
- Experience in defining and implementing governance and reporting; ensuring regular progress reporting management against milestones and developing contingency plans
- Experience reporting on population of items for ‘remediation’ within a defined timeframe
- Experience working alongside data teams to ensure they have an understanding of the key data elements required to provide accurate reporting and population management
- Proactive management of Risks, Actions, Issues and Dependencies (RAID), including running workshops to resolve
- Track record of managing senior stakeholders and demonstrating ability to tailor communications
- Ability to work within cross-functional teams (legal, compliance, control functions) to solve practical business challenges with a proactive and solutions oriented mindset.
