Samuel Herbert

SAR Investigator at Santander UK

Luton, England, United Kingdom

About

With five years of financial crime experience in a global bank, Samuel has developed as a skilled SAR Investigator with a strong foundation in financial crime risk and investigative analysis. Known for a meticulous and methodical approach to casework, he has a proven record for producing clear, defensible SARs and identifying complex patterns of suspicious behavior across diverse client profiles. His expertise lie in risk management, regulatory compliance, and deep-dive investigations, often involving high-risk or non-standard entities. Samuel is now looking to build on this experience by stepping into a more senior role within a high performing financial crime team - one that offers exposure to more sophisticated typologies, greater client complexity, and opportunities to contribute strategically to a firm’s financial crime framework.
