MLRO to Resurs Bank

Are you an experienced AML specialist who wants to combine deep expertise with real influence in a changing business? Resurs Bank is now looking for an Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) to take on a key role in leading, developing, and strengthening the bank’s AML/CFT work.

About the role

The role is fully dedicated to MLRO responsibilities and comes with a clear mandate to strengthen structure, methodology, and ways of working across the area. Responsibilities include all the Bank’s countries of operation.

You will be part of the compliance function and work closely with the Head of Compliance, your compliance colleagues, the Financial Crime Prevention team and the business. In this position, you will play a central role in shaping how the bank works with AML/CFT going forward, ensuring that the framework is robust, business-anchored, and aligned with both regulatory expectations and organisational needs.

Your responsibilities will include:

• monitor and regularly control compliance with AML/CFT legislation in the Nordic countries where the Bank operates as well as with internal rules and regulations

• assessing and following up on AML/CFT issues

• ensuring reporting of suspicious activities and transactions and answering to requests from the FIUs

• reporting to the CEO and the Board

• monitoring regulatory developments and assessing their impact for the Bank

• providing qualified support to the business in matters relating to new products, process changes, and system improvements as well as other implications for the business of AML/CFT rules

• audit, monitor and control internal procedures, guidelines and AML/CFT measures in place and assess whether they are compliant, appropriate and effective and provide recommendations based on findings

• General AML/CFT training

This is a role for someone who enjoys combining specialist depth with influence in the business. You will have the opportunity to work close to decision-making, contribute to a strategically important area, and play a meaningful part in the bank’s continued development.

As the regulatory landscape continues to evolve, not least through the AML Package, this role also offers scope for someone who is adaptable, forward-looking, and motivated by helping shape an area that will continue to change over time.

About you

We are looking for a senior AML professional with strong hands-on experience and the confidence to take independent ownership of a specialist area.

To succeed in this role, we believe you bring:

• at least five years of relevant AML experience

• very strong experience from the second line of defence

• experience from a bank, payment institution, fintech company, or another regulatory complex business

• fluency in Swedish and English

• a law degree or other relevant academic background

A law degree is an advantage, but not a requirement. What matters most is your ability to interpret and apply regulations, technical standards, and legal frameworks in practice.

You are confident, self-driven, and comfortable making independent assessments. At the same time, you are structured, pragmatic, and able to move things forward in a changing business environment. We also believe that you are curious, forward-looking, and motivated by improving ways of working.

Experience in developing and delivering training is a requirement, and an interest in technology, AI, and new ways of working is a clear advantage.

Location and ways of working

The role is based in Helsingborg or Stockholm. For those based in Stockholm, travel is a natural part of the role, especially at the beginning, in order to build presence in the business and establish strong relationships.
