  • Identify, document, and escalate compliance issues or breaches, ensuring timely and effective remediation.

  • Analyse data and leverage innovative methods to enhance the efficiency of compliance testing and monitoring.

  • Produce KPIs and Management Information (MI) for senior management and governance committees (including ORCC and Board).

  • Contribute to Compliance Governance — supporting policy development, training, and committee reporting.

  • Interpret and advise on UK and EU regulatory developments, collaborating with the wider EMEA Compliance team.

  • Assist with internal and external audits, providing clear documentation and follow-up as needed.

What We're Looking For

Essential Experience & Skills

  • Strong understanding of UK/EU Benchmark Regulations (UK BMR).

  • Background in wholesale financial services, ideally within Banking or Inter-Dealer Broking.

  • Proficiency in MS Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint).

  • Proven analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.

  • Strong grasp of FCA regulatory frameworks (including COBS, SYSC, and related sourcebooks).

  • Ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.

Desirable Experience

  • Hands-on experience conducting compliance reviews and reporting findings.

  • Project management capability with the ability to handle multiple initiatives.

  • Experience working collaboratively across diverse teams in a fast-paced environment.

Who You Are

  • A solutions-driven professional with excellent judgment and integrity.

  • Analytical and detail-oriented, with the ability to translate findings into actionable insights.

  • A strong communicator who can build trusted relationships across departments.

  • Collaborative, dependable, and proactive — thriving in a complex, matrixed environment.

  • Committed to personal growth and continuous learning.
