About Us

We’ve built one of the largest networks of AML professionals across the Legal, Accounting, and Real Estate sectors, both in Australia and abroad.

GRC Talent is Australia's leading recruitment agency for AML professionals in law, real estate, and accounting. We're a boutique firm based in Sydney, founded by Sophia Jeory, who has been following the Tranche 2 AML/CTF Act reforms closely for some time and recognises the significance these changes will have across a large group of the Australian professional services market.

When similar legislation was introduced in New Zealand, it sparked an all-out talent war. In Australia, the impact is set to be even greater, with approximately 90,000 new reporting entities expected to be captured under the reforms (vs the 8,000 in NZ).

With a passion for filling the most difficult job briefs, combined with a network that spans Australia & NZ - GRC Talent is here to support businesses preparing for new AML obligations.

Today, we’ve built one of the largest networks of AML professionals across the Legal, Accounting, and Real Estate sectors, both in Australia and abroad.

As AML expertise becomes increasingly scarce, we provide tailored shortlists of both local and offshore candidates with relevant experience in your sector.

We’re here to help - so don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Our Testimonials

It was an absolute pleasure working with Sophia. From the outset, she was responsive, attentive to the qualities that we were seeking in a candidate, demonstrated excellent knowledge of the market, provided invaluable advice, and sourced a quality shortlist of candidates for us to interview. I would highly recommend Sophia to anyone else looking for a similar role and would not hesitate in using her services again.

Daren, Employer

Sophia has been absolutely incredible from the very beginning of my job search journey. From our first conversation, she was transparent, honest, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right role. Her communication was always prompt, clear, and supportive, making the entire process feel smooth and stress free. She took the time to understand what I was looking for and went above and beyond to ensure the opportunity aligned perfectly with my goals and values. Thanks to her dedication and guidance, I’ve landed a dream job. I’m truly grateful for everything she’s done and couldn’t recommend her more highly.

Brad, Employer

Sophia is the leading Tranche 2 AML/CFT recruiter, she is professional and guided me every step of the way, including guiding me on making the move across the ditch from NZ to AU. She provides a one stop shop for NZ AML/CFT professionals looking for roles in AU. Sophia made my AU job recruitment easy, provided a friendly and educative experience, and provides a service where you feel valued as a candidate. Her other references speak similar experiences. I highly recommend Sophia for any AML/CFT employer or candidate.

Michael, Candidate

I had a fantastic experience working with Sophia from GRC. From the start, she took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and presented high-quality candidates who were a great fit for the role. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and stress-free, making hiring much easier than expected. Her professionalism, clear communication, and ability to find the right people quickly really stood out. I highly recommend Sophia and the team at GRC to anyone looking for a recruiter who delivers excellent results with minimal hassle!

Nina, Employer

Sophia was amazing throughout the whole process, from her initial introduction over the phone, right through to the feedback I received throughout the interview process. Sophia's personality is one of honesty and integrity, which as a candidate I am truly grateful for. She was able to provide me with some really good insight in relation to my career choices which I may not necessarily have been able to come to on my own accord. At no point in time throughout the recruitment process, did I feel pressured to make any decisions I would not have been comfortable with. This has been a stark contrast compared to a few of my previous dealings with recruitment professionals.
