The Senior VP, Anti-Money Laundering Advisory Lead will provide AML and financial-crime guidance to UOB’s Private Banking business in Singapore. Responsibilities typically include advising relationship managers and business leaders on customer due diligence, risk assessment, transaction monitoring, suspicious-transaction escalation, sanctions and regulatory requirements; reviewing complex or high-risk clients; supporting policy implementation; and engaging regulators and internal control functions. Candidates should have substantial AML, compliance or financial-crime experience, preferably in private banking or wealth management, with strong knowledge of Singapore MAS requirements. The role requires sound judgment, excellent stakeholder-management and communication skills, commercial awareness, and the ability to explain complex regulations clearly while maintaining independence and effective challenge.

Singapore is a compact, highly connected island and a leading Asian hub for banking, technology, healthcare, logistics and professional services. Financial-sector opportunities are especially strong in compliance, risk, wealth management, data, cybersecurity and corporate banking. The culture is multicultural, efficient and generally business-oriented, with English widely used at work. Public transport is excellent, healthcare and public services are reliable, and the city offers diverse food, shopping, parks and waterfront attractions. Housing, international schools and dining can be expensive, although salaries are competitive. Foreign professionals usually need an employer-sponsored Employment Pass; eligibility depends on salary, qualifications, experience and current government criteria. Employers generally handle the application, while dependants may qualify for related passes. New arrivals should arrange accommodation, tax and healthcare matters early and check work-pass rules before relocating. Singapore’s warm, humid climate and limited space are worth considering when planning a move.
