At SEB, the Group Financial Crime Prevention (FCP) team is committed to not only meeting regulatory expectations but also setting the industry standard in combating financial crime. Our mission is to create a secure and trustworthy financial landscape through rigorous governance and a relentless pursuit of excellence. This commitment is essential to safeguarding both the financial system and society, while also driving substantial business value.
The FCP Governance Team within the Group AML Office is now seeking two experienced Senior Global FCP Governance Managers to join our team.
About the roles
As a Senior Global FCP Governance Manager, you will play a pivotal role in strengthening and advancing SEB Group’s financial crime governance across the first line of defense. Your strategic and global perspective, combined with deep expertise in areas such as Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF), financial sanctions, fraud prevention, and market surveillance, will be key to your success. You will be responsible for safeguarding operational excellence, regulatory compliance, and the application of risk-based approaches within a complex, multi-geography business environment.
We are hiring for two distinct roles:
Global FCP Governance Lead: In this role, you will oversee the global FCP governance practices, ensuring that processes, capabilities, and activities align with the three lines of defense model, internal rules, and industry best practices. You will design, develop, and refine governance structures and operating models to support effective and proportional financial crime prevention across SEB Group's first line.
Global AML/CTF Governance Lead: Focused on AML and CTF governance across the first line, this role will ensure that FCP governance frameworks support strong compliance and a risk-based approach, with a particular emphasis on transaction monitoring capabilities, processes, and frameworks.

- Develop and manage a comprehensive and consistent financial crime governance strategy across SEB Group, ensuring alignment with internal rules, industry best practices, operating models, and regulatory requirements.
- Continuously evaluate and enhance financial crime governance practices using a risk-based approach, driving operational efficiency, managing regulatory changes, and maximizing business value.
- Operationalize the three lines of defense model, identifying opportunities to improve compliance, effectiveness, and business outcomes across the organization.
- Collaborate with key stakeholders, including First Line Business, Group Compliance, Group Risk, and Group Legal, to define and clarify financial crime roles, responsibilities, and decision-making practices.
- Navigate the complexities of a global organization with diverse geographies, business offerings, customer bases, and regulatory environments, ensuring that financial crime prevention frameworks are robust and proportionate to the risks faced.
- Lead the development of a governance structure that supports an efficient and effective FCP operating model, with a clear focus on delivering business value.
- Validate and align FCP group-wide frameworks, instructions, and standards with the operating model, internal rules, and industry best practices.
- Provide strategic guidance and support to financial crime framework- and process owners, safeguarding compliance, operational efficiency and effectiveness, and risk-based decision-making.

- You bring at least 10 years of experience in financial crime prevention and/or governance within a major financial institution or comparable, with additional experience from supervisory bodies (e.g., FIU, FSA, or Tax Agency) and/or consultancy firms (e.g., a big four or law firm) being a plus.
- You have a strong understanding of the three lines of defense operating model and its application in financial crime prevention, with experience in both first- and second-line roles being highly beneficial.
- You possess deep knowledge in one or more areas of AML/CTF, Financial Sanctions, Fraud Prevention, and Market Surveillance, particularly in relation to governance, risk, and compliance (GRC).
