Join Juliette’s Anti-Financial Crime (AFC) France team as an expert to protect Qonto and its users. As a second-line expert, you will validate our Enhanced Investigations and suspicious activity reports before they reach the French Financial Intelligence Unit (Tracfin), and shape how we detect and investigate financial crime — from complex risk scenarios to better procedures.

👩‍💻🧑‍💻 As an AFC Expert (France) at Qonto, you will

Validate: Review, correct and autonomously validate the Enhanced Investigations drafted by the AFC team before they are declared to Tracfin.

Report: Draft, review and validate Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) for Tracfin, including the most complex cases (large networks, tax fraud involving several groups), and handle complex authority requests.

Control quality: Run systematic quality controls on our second-line work and, occasionally, on alerts handled by the first-line AML and Fraud teams, so that standards and regulatory deadlines are always met.

Improve detection: Propose complex risk scenarios and emerging trends for our transaction monitoring and customer risk rating, update our investigation procedures, and drive improvement projects end to end (for example AI and network analysis) that fit your interests and specialisation.

Coach: Be the go-to reference for junior colleagues and give detailed methodology feedback to the AML and Fraud teams, and share what you learn.

🤔 What you can expect

Fast-paced environment: We operate in a dynamic fintech setting where reactivity and adaptability are key; you will work through a high volume of cases without compromising on quality ("Go fast but do it right").

Collaborative culture: You will join Juliette’s close-knit AFC team that values peer support, with weekly team meetings and regular 1-on-1s to foster your growth.

Influence & development: Your feedback and procedures directly shape how AML, Fraud and Onboarding work. You will see a variety of cases (AML, tax fraud, corruption, scams, fraud in general) and can deepen the specialisation that fits you through projects.

Tools: You will work with our internal proprietary back-office tools and communicate via Slack.
