**About ARK**

ARK is a social enterprise, empowering local communities through the provision of agile and sustainable interventions to create greater stability, opportunity, and hope for the future.

We believe that strong, resilient communities are the foundation of local, national, regional and international development and stability - and ultimately a safer, peaceful and more prosperous world. At ARK, we have delivered research and programmatic interventions validating this approach in over twenty countries since 2008. As a social enterprise we work in partnership with communities, our donors, and other implementers to build local capacities, generate opportunity and bring about sustainable change.

**About the Role**

We’re looking for a Compliance Officer to ensure that ARK’s operations and business transactions follow all relevant client and internal rules.

It is important to note that the role is not limited to reviewing vendor invoices, but the full life cycle of documents from purchase request to receipt of goods and delivery of services, including delivery notes, certificates of completion, milestone certification, human resources files etc.

A central part of this role is to provide feedback to the submitters on errors and strive for a zero-error rate in submissions through regular feedback and training sessions. You’ll also contribute to drafting company-wide training material, internal audits, and recommendations for process/policy changes.

Reporting into the Head of Corporate Services, who oversees audit and compliance, you will also work closely with members of the Finance Team, Subject Matter Experts, and the Programs team.

- Travel documentation for air ticket and accommodation purchases.

- Reject incorrect payment requests and provide guidance on corrective action required.
- Provide constructive feedback on re-occurring errors in order to eliminate future errors.
- Provide regular reporting to Heads of Departments on volume and nature of errors.
- Provide recommendations for staff training and process improvements.
- Assist Head of Corporate Services with internal audits, including reviewing and organising large amounts of data, and drafting audit reports.
- Assist with checking data accuracy and flagging non-conformities ranging from timesheet checks to procurement file checks, and any other ad hoc support as required.
- Important: This role does not involve any accounting responsibilities on ARK’s accounting system. _
