We are looking for motivated, diligent, and proactive Know Your Customer (KYC) Analysts to join us as freelancers. This mission demands a strong operational mindset with the ability to make fast, accurate decisions within a fast-paced environment. In this position, you will be responsible for conducting detailed customer due diligence to prevent our organization from being misused for money laundering, financial fraud, and other financial crimes.

💡 Not familiar with KYC? Know Your Customer (KYC) is the process of verifying the identity of customers and assessing potential risks before entering into a business relationship with them. It is a core part of financial compliance and fraud prevention.

KYC:

• Conduct detailed customer due diligence, perform risk assessments, and make sure each customer complies with our company’s KYC policy.

• Gather necessary information and documents from new customers and verify them effectively.

• Ensure complete, accurate, and timely data entry of KYC records into the appropriate systems.

• Stay abreast of regulatory changes and updates regarding KYC and AML standards.

• Collaborate with the Compliance team in order to refine and optimize the company’s KYC policies.

• Ensure confidentiality of investigations and exchanges.

Fraud Analysis:

• Assess and make recommendations to mitigate potential risks of financial fraud, money laundering, and terrorism financing.

• Use analytical tools and techniques to detect fraud, trends, patterns, and provide actionable insights to enhance business risk strategies.

✨ You’re a great match if:

• You are available for a 3 to 6-month freelance mission in Paris, with the possibility of extension depending on volumes.

• You have at least 1 year of work experience (or 2 years via apprenticeship), in any field: customer support, admin, back office, finance, banking, or beyond. If you are looking to make a career shift or find your first role in the fintech world, you are more than welcome to apply.

• Naturally curious: you ask the right questions and dig into problems to find solutions.

• You are detail-oriented, structured, and process-driven.

• Comfortable working under pressure and adapting quickly to fast-paced and changing environments.

• Able to manage multiple priorities while consistently delivering results and meeting targets.

• Have clear and efficient communication in English.

• Familiar with digital tools such as a CRM, ticketing system, or AI tools. A bonus, not a requirement.

• Our ideal teammate: Empathetic. Skilled. Frank. We love to challenge each other, and we leave our egos at the door.

💡 KYC or AML experience? Amazing, but not required. If you’re curious, motivated, and ready to learn, don’t hesitate to apply.

✨ How it will work:

This is not a typical hiring; think of it as a hiring batch + dedicated technical training. Before applying, here’s what you need to know:

• 📍 You must be based in Paris (mandatory)

• 📄 This is only for a freelance contract

• 🗓️ Start date: May 4th

• 🏢 100% onsite at the Paris office for the first 2 weeks of onboarding

If you join us, you’ll go through a structured onboarding: a full first week dedicated to Swan and our processes, followed by a second week of hands-on practice alongside our senior analysts, so you’re fully ready to take on your own cases.

• 15-minute phone call with our TA team to discuss your background, motivation, and verify logistics.

• Take-home case (1 day to prepare) followed by an Interview with a KYC Manager

• If all goes well, you’ll receive an offer at the latest mid-April (2 weeks before the onboarding date)

Note: the take-home case is not a test of your KYC knowledge. It’s designed to give you a chance to show us how you think, how you approach a problem, and how you communicate your results. That’s all we’re looking for 😊
