In Deloitte Risk, Regulatory & Forensic, you will support banks, insurance companies, and other regulated entities in identifying, investigating, and mitigating financial-crime risks. As part of our Financial Crime & Forensics team, you will contribute to complex investigations involving fraud, money laundering, sanctions breaches, corruption, and reputational risk.

You will apply Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) methodologies, forensic research techniques, and investigative analytics to support regulatory inquiries, internal investigations, and due diligence engagements. Working alongside experienced forensic practitioners, you will help clients navigate Swiss and international regulatory expectations while leveraging cutting-edge investigative tools and intelligence sources.

How You Can Make an Impact

• Conduct OSINT investigations and intelligence gathering using public, commercial, and adverse-media sources.
• Apply structured OSINT tradecraft, including collection planning, source evaluation, corporate-records research, adverse-media validation, beneficial ownership mapping, entity resolution, link analysis, and intelligence report production.
• Support forensic investigations related to money laundering, fraud, sanctions breaches, corruption, and misconduct.
• Analyze complex corporate structures, beneficial ownership networks, and cross-border information flows with a strong understanding of Swiss particularities and regulatory frameworks.
• Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams on forensic reviews, litigation support, and regulatory investigations.
• Support the development of investigative methodologies, analytics approaches, and risk prevention capabilities.
• Build your career toward certifications such as CAMS, CFE, or other forensic and intelligence-related qualifications through structured training and mentoring.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Law, Criminology, International Relations, Finance, Business Administration, Political Science, Data Analytics, or a related field.
• Strong interest or initial exposure to OSINT, compliance, investigations, intelligence analysis, or forensic services through internships, academic work, or prior experience. Exposure to technical OSINT capabilities and investigative technologies is considered an advantage.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications, particularly Excel and PowerPoint; familiarity with Power BI is an advantage. Experience with programming or query languages such as Python or SQL is a plus.
• Familiarity with Swiss regulatory and market particularities, with the ability to conduct investigations in accordance with applicable legal, ethical, privacy, and data-protection requirements.
• Understanding of AML/KYC principles, sanctions compliance, or investigative research methodologies is beneficial.
• Strong analytical and report-writing skills with the ability to structure findings clearly and concisely.
• Fluency in English and German; French is an advantage. Comfortable working with digital research tools, databases, and data-analysis technologies.
• We value candidates who actively contribute to cross-functional collaboration and knowledge sharing.
