- Escalation & Resolution: Identify regulatory red flags, transaction anomalies, or suspicious activities, and prepare comprehensive risk narratives to escalate to the Compliance Manager.

- Workflow Refinement: Actively identify operational bottlenecks in the onboarding pipeline and collaborate with the team to optimize compliance workflows and tools.
- Cross-Functional Partnering: Serve as a trusted point of contact for Sales, Relationship Managers, and Account Executives to provide clear, actionable guidance on missing documentation and onboarding statuses.
