- Provide practical, timely compliance advice to colleagues and senior management on regulatory requirements, risk and good governance.
- Lead investigations into complex compliance matters, customer concerns, incidents and potential breaches, ensuring findings are documented, evidence-based and resolved appropriately.
- Maintain robust records of compliance activity, risk assessments, investigations, decisions and remedial actions.
- Identify regulatory, operational and conduct risks, escalating material issues and recommending proportionate solutions.
- Carry out compliance monitoring and assurance reviews, tracking actions through to completion.
- Support regulatory reporting, audit activity and responses to information requests where required.
- Deliver or coordinate compliance training and communications to promote a strong culture of accountability and awareness.
- Work closely with operational and product teams to identify root causes, improve processes and prevent recurring issues.
- Keep informed of relevant regulatory developments and ensure policies, controls and business practices remain up to date.
- Promote fair, transparent and consistent outcomes, with sound judgement and integrity at the heart of all decisions.
About you
- Proven experience in a compliance, risk, regulatory or financial-crime role within a regulated financial services or corporate services environment.

- Excellent written communication skills, including the ability to prepare professional reports, policies, correspondence and management information.
- Strong organisational skills, with the ability to manage a varied workload, prioritise effectively and meet deadlines.
- A thoughtful, objective and solution-focused approach to problem-solving.
- Confidence to challenge constructively, escalate concerns where necessary and uphold high ethical standards.
- Professional qualifications in compliance, risk, AML or financial crime are desirable.
