Compliance Quality Control Officer

Compliance is a crucial component of our corporate culture. It ensures that we conduct our business with honesty, integrity and ethics and that we follow both the spirit and the letter of regulations. In addition to fighting money laundering, compliance also includes protecting investors, preventing market abuse, protecting privacy and preventing fraud.

One of the core tasks of the Compliance team is to ensure that rules are respected. We also help the business to implement rules, give advice and support training and awareness campaigns. Moreover, we, in the Services and Quality Control team, perform quality controls in KBC Group entities and also take care of Group Compliance reporting activities.

We are looking for the next member into our international quality control team. You will for sure feel at home, if:

• you are able to synthetize your thoughts and shape them into a consistent text using clear English (being the work language in our team). This you will need when - having performed a quality control in a country of KBC Group (yes, when the current pandemic circumstances allow for it, some travel goes with the job..) - you draft your report to local colleagues, including management. If apart from English you speak any of the following languages: Dutch, Czech, Slovakian, Bulgarian, Hungarian, or French - do not hide this fact from us;
• you can stand behind your viewpoint (your communication is clear and convincing) - since you are expected to issue recommendations - whenever your findings make that necessary;
• you like people - as simple as that. You enjoy cooperating with them, and giving them a helping hand, via e.g. advising them on how to make their achievements - but also outstanding risks - easily understandable for others (in our vocab we call it 'reviewing local reports'). You like supporting colleagues by giving practical, timely explanation to their questions;
• you are able to tackle pressure in case of conflicts. 'Working under pressure' is a recurrent and fashionable term in so many job advertisements, and. well.when taking up a role in a control function it may definitely come in handy.

• You will have the opportunity to be part of a constructive, open minded team;
• Coach colleagues and/or be coached by them;
• Receive honest & respectful feedback in all cases - and do it on a mutual basis;
• Have the certainty that your work does have an impact (relevance & visibility);
• You will have the flexibility (within the framework of the broader rules under which we operate) to organize your work independently (=we will treat you as a grown-up);
• You are free to work from your current host country let it be Belgium or any other KBC Group countries: via this we are not only business-as-usual pandemic-proof, but reflect on our genuine passion for diversity as well.
