• The ability to prepare clear, defensible reports and narratives for regulatory filings and internal governance forums
• To be able to explain complex AML/fraud findings to non-technical audiences, senior management, and regulators

• An interest in coaching junior investigators and supporting FinCrime capability growth in Brazil
