UKFIU (Strategy, Systems, Engagement) and Proceeds of Crime Centre

The UKFIU is responsible for the receipt, analysis and dissemination of 900,000 Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) each year. The SARs Reform Programme is delivering significant improvements to the regime, including: the expansion and restructuring of UKFIU; the replacement and transformation of the SARs IT systems; and related business change. This reform will improve both the quality of SARs and the exploitation of this intelligence to deliver a more effective response to money laundering and terrorist finance.

The G1 Strategy, Systems & Engagement will lead the ongoing work to expand and restructure the UKFIU, and will work closely with the SARs IT teams to deliver the SARs IT Project. They will lead a team of business experts working alongside the technical development teams to ensure that the new IT build meets business needs for NCA and wider SARs stakeholders, and delivers agreed benefits.

In addition the G1 will lead the UKFIU Communications & Engagement, Systems & Analysis, and Co-ordination and Risk Teams. These teams are responsible for oversight of the existing SARs IT systems (including information management), production of strategic and tactical intelligence products, delivery of a wide range of communications products to SARs Regime stakeholders across the public and private sector, engagement with HMG on SARs regime legislation, policy and guidance, and co-ordination of risk and assurance processes within UKFIU. This role will also have oversight of the UKFIU Financial Intelligence Unit (UKFIU) and Proceeds of Crime Centre (PoCC).
