You will report to the Global Head of Fidelity's Financial Crimes Compliance program and serve as the firm's sanctions authority, accountable for U.S. OFAC compliance and alignment with global sanctions regimes, including those issued by the UK, EU, Canada, Switzerland, and the UN-where crossjurisdictional divergence and increased regulatory activity require heightened coordination.

You will lead the design, execution, and continuous enhancement of Fidelity's sanctions program, supporting strategic priorities, operational resilience, and regulatory expectations amid aggressive global enforcement trends, including rising penalties, expanded gatekeeper liability, and broader scrutiny of financial intermediaries.

Program Strategy, Design & Governance

Screening, Investigations & Decisioning

• Provide executive oversight and finallevel decisioning for complex customer, transaction, investment, and thirdparty sanctions escalations. Ensure controls adequately address expanding enforcement expectations for financial intermediaries, investment managers, brokers, and gatekeepers.

Risk Assessment & Controls

• Lead global sanctions risk assessments to identify emerging exposures, including nonU.S. sanctions programs increasingly diverging from U.S. actions (e.g., Canada, Switzerland, EU expanding designations while U.S. growth slows). Identify and implement program enhancements across people, processes, and technology.

Technology, Analytics & Data Enablement

• Champion advanced screening tools, data science applications, machinelearning detection capabilities, and continuous optimization of systems and models. Partner with Technology and Platform Strategy teams to drive automation to support scalability and reduce false positives in a rapidly evolving threat landscape, including risks associated with fintech, crypto, digital assets, and crossborder payment technologies.

Metrics, Reporting & Regulatory Engagement

• Develop and present comprehensive sanctions reporting, trend analysis, and program health indicators to Executive Committees, Senior Leaders, Audit and regulators. Act as Financial Crimes Compliance's representative with domestic and international regulators, lawenforcement bodies, and industry groups.

Enterprise Partnership & Leadership

• Influence and collaborate with senior leaders across Compliance, Legal, Risk, Technology, Investments, Brokerage, Global Security, and Audit. Lead, mentor, and develop a highperforming global sanctions team, ensuring technical expertise, analytical depth, and readiness for evolving regulatory demands.

The Expertise and Skills You Bring

• 12+ years of sanctions compliance experience at a large financial institution, regulatory agency, consultancy, law firm, or equivalent.

• Deep knowledge of global sanctions regimes, including OFAC, UK HMT, EU, UN, and Canadian sanctions, as well as familiarity with their increasing divergence and crossborder implications.

• Experience managing global sanctions programs for large and complex financial institutions.

• Strong industry understanding across brokerage, asset management, wealth management, and digital/crypto asset ecosystems.
