Financial Intelligence Targeting Analyst

The Opportunity:

Critical decisions are made every single day in our government. What if you could use your skills to help them make informed decisions? With all the information available today, it takes a skilled analyst to know how to find and interpret the best data to give their clients the right answers. As a Financial Intelligence Targeting Analyst, you’ll use your specialized technical and functional experience and attention to detail to develop insights, understanding, recommendations, and reports to give your client the actionable information and context they need. If you have strong analytical skills and a problem-solving mindset, we have an opportunity to use those skills to protect our national security and inform our nation’s leaders.

As a Financial Intelligence Targeting Analyst on our team, you will leverage your understanding of international money laundering, threat finance, sanctions evasion, corruption and kleptocracy, and other illicit finance typologies to assist our clients with finding the right targets to help advance their missions. You will evaluate financial data to identify and analyze indicators of money laundering activity. To develop deep financial intelligence insights, you will explore new data sources, build effective queries, and combine information from disparate sources, including intelligence reporting, open-source information, regulatory filings, financial transaction data, blockchain transaction tracing, and more.

As the authority in your area of expertise, your client will look to you for time-critical recommendations, often under pressure. This is a chance to grow your expertise, develop new skills in data analytics, research and analysis, and analytical writing, brief senior decision makers, share your methodologies with analysts and investigators, and work throughout the interagency environment to address illicit finance risks to the U.S. financial system. We focus on growing as a team to deliver the best support to our customers, so you will have resources for mentoring and learning new skills and tools. Join us as we provide the right information at the right time to support the critical needs of our nation’s leaders and policymakers.
