This pivotal role is situated within our dedicated VANTAGE team, where you will perform in-depth media analysis, utilize databases, and examine primary documents to identify any criminal or reputational issues, as well as determine ultimate beneficial ownership and scrutinize intricate corporate structures for potential political and sanctions-related exposures.

In this fast-paced environment, you will be tasked with synthesizing findings from Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) and Human Intelligence (HUMINT) research into concise reports within tight deadlines.

  • Conduct comprehensive media and database research adhering to established methodologies.
  • Collaborate with in-country networks to gather compliance-related insights unavailable through OSINT.
  • Analyze results within the context of the respective project and geographical area.
  • Draw conclusions and discern indirect connections from research findings.

  • Compile and summarize relevant findings in detailed reports.
  • Present and brief internal stakeholders on research outcomes when necessary.
