  • Engage in financial intelligence-gathering activities that feed into broader monitoring, investigation, compliance, and legal enforcement actions.
  • Represent the client on domestic and international forums, advising on legal and anti-money laundering matters.
  • Provide OSINT advisory support to internal clients (Investigation, Compliance, Legal) and external partners such as HAWKS, Interpol, SARS, and other agencies.
  • Testify in legal matters when required 
  • Mentor junior analysts and act as the technical lead within the OSINT capability.
  • Ensure full compliance with legal frameworks and ethical standards in all intelligence-gathering activities.
Minimum Requirements:
  • A relevant university degree 
  • At least 6 years' experience in intelligence, cyber investigations, or forensic analysis.
  • Strong experience in blockchain analysis, cryptocurrency tracking, and tracing transactions via general ledger investigations.
  • Proven knowledge of discreet OSINT tools, deep/dark web navigation, and domain analysis.
  • Ability to interpret complex financial crime typologies such as money laundering, terror financing, and trafficking networks.
  • Advanced report writing, technical analysis, and presentation skills.
  • Understanding of internet protocols (DNS, TCP/IP, SMTP, HTTPS, etc.).
  • Experience in advising on legal or AML/CFT matters is a strong advantage
Bonus Skills (Advantageous):
  • Professional certifications such as GOSI, CEH, CFE, or CAMS.
  • Experience with tools like Maltego, Shodan, or blockchain analytics platforms (e.g., Chainalysis, TRM Labs).
