More about Francesca & Flex AML
Our founder, Francesca, spent the last decade working at the forefront of the flexible workspace sector.Throughout her career, she’s worked with hundreds of building owners and managers nationwide, gaining a deep understanding of the unique challenges these businesses face when it comes to compliance.
Early in her journey, the business she worked for underwent a surprise HMRC audit. Like many, the experience was daunting and filled with uncertainty. But instead of letting fear linger, Francesca turned it into motivation, making it her mission to understand AML regulations inside and out. Over the years, she became the go-to person for practical, reliable compliance guidance within the industry.
That initial fear eventually became a passion: a drive to ensure no one else felt overwhelmed or caught off guard when it came to AML responsibilities. After supporting countless others through their own audits and investigations and becoming a certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist, Francesca founded Flex AML in 2025.
Flex AML was born to empower businesses with in-house knowledge and practical tools, helping them confidently own their compliance processes. We’re here to raise the standard, remove the scaremongering, and offer real, human support to businesses that deserve better.
