YOUR JOB IN A NUTSHELL
Ready to make an impact at the heart of the bank? Join our small, dynamic team driving BNP Paribas Fortis’s Financial Security efforts. As project manager, you'll coordinate key initiatives around anti-money laundering, client due diligence and risk remediation — working closely with senior leaders and teams across the bank. A unique opportunity to grow your skills and contribute to a major transformation program.
AND IN DETAIL
Join BNP Paribas Fortis and contribute to a major Financial Security transformation programme that supports the bank's integrity and compliance. As co-leader of the KYC (Know Your Customer) workstream, you’ll help drive essential improvements across teams and departments.
Your responsibilities:
- Co-lead the KYC workstream within the Financial Security Consolidation (FSC) Programme, working closely with a team of experts to strengthen the bank’s safeguards against financial crime.
- Coordinate with key stakeholders across the bank to define action plans that address identified risks - guiding them, constructively challenging their proposals, and ensuring steady follow-up.
- Analyse existing processes related to Financial Security to ensure they comply with both local and international banking rules.
- Support teams in implementing recommendations made by the Group’s internal audit (Inspection Générale), helping them translate feedback into real improvements.
- Report regularly to senior leadership through clear and structured updates during the FSC operational committees, held every two weeks.
- Document all risk remediation steps to ensure full transparency and traceability — essential for regulatory reviews and audits.
Why this role is exciting:
You’ll work at the intersection of compliance, strategy, and project delivery - gaining broad exposure across the organisation. You’ll collaborate with senior decision-makers and multiple teams, giving your work real visibility and impact. You’ll deepen your understanding of Financial Security topics and develop strong skills in risk analysis, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder engagement.
YOUR TALENTS AND COMPETENCES
- A collaborative mindset, with the ability to work constructively with others to reach shared objectives.
- Strong organisational and project management skills, with a structured approach to planning and meeting deadlines.
- A sharp analytical eye, capable of stepping back to assess situations critically and identify meaningful improvements.
- Proactive attitude — anticipating needs, taking initiative, and delivering practical solutions without waiting to be asked.
- Solid understanding of compliance or risk management, ideally with at least three years of relevant experience (particularly in Financial Security).
- Fluency in English, both spoken and written; basic spoken French or Dutch is also expected.
- Confident user of Microsoft Office tools (Outlook, Excel, Word, PowerPoint).
