The challenge

• We're building AI for compliance work. Not talking about it—building it. You'll work alongside engineers to automate regulatory monitoring, gap analyses, and reporting. Your on-the-ground experience shapes what gets built.
  
• You'll own your workstreams, not just support them. Day-to-day, this work is yours to run. You'll have a manager in the same office when you need to escalate, but the judgement calls, prioritisation, and accountability are yours.
  
• You'll build something. Some of the frameworks you inherit will be established. Others you'll construct from the ground up, drawing on group practices and your own regulatory expertise.There's real scope to shape how compliance is done across these entities.
  
  

• Own the compliance monitoring programme for assigned entities (investment business, banking and VASP). Build programmes from scratch for new licenses or execute existing frameworks with full autonomy. Maintain documentation that stands up to regulatory scrutiny.
  
• Monitor regulatory change, conduct gap analysis, and assess impact of legislative and regulatory developments on assigned entities. Translate regulatory developments into actionable outcomes for stakeholders.
  
• Prepare board-ready compliance documentation (monitoring reports, regulatory updates, risk assessments). Produce precise, well-structured output credible to both stakeholders and regulators.
  
• Manage regulatory submissions (annual compliance reports, SIBA returns, equivalent filings). Ensure accuracy and timeliness—regulators don't accept late or incomplete submissions.
  
• Prepare for regulatory examinations and audits. Maintain documentation, act as point of contact during inspections, and work with control functions to address findings.
  
• Build and maintain compliance policies. Identify opportunities to improve processes through better workflows, smarter controls, or AI automation.
  
Maintain regulatory relationships and respond to authority queries. Provide practical compliance guidance to internal teams, translating regulatory requirements into actionable terms.

• 
  

• You have at least 5 years' experience with a proven track record of independently owning and executing compliance monitoring programs.
  
• You understand investment business regulation or have strong interest in building expertise. Experience with investment services frameworks, CFDs, derivatives, or virtual assets is valuable. Exposure to CIMA, BVI FSC, or equivalent offshore regulators is an advantage—but curiosity and ability to learn regulatory frameworks quickly matters more than prior VASP experience.
  
• You have a builder's mindset and the critical thinking skills to apply established compliance principles to emerging regulatory frameworks.
  
• You are an independent driver. You're comfortable being the on-the-ground expert for your assigned portfolios, providing high-level analysis without needing constant direction.
  
• You produce high-quality written output. You structure compliance reports and regulatory analysis in ways that are logical, well-presented, and accessible to stakeholders at different levels. Strong English.
  
• You're comfortable with AI and automation. You use AI tools or you're ready to learn. You see technology as a way to do better compliance work.
  
You have a degree in law, finance, compliance, or related field. You keep your knowledge current through professional development. ICA, ACAMS, or equivalent certifications are desirable.
