• Promote and embed a strong compliance culture across the business.
• Review and advise on business materials including FCA training, marketing material, PR copy, scripts, and standard terms.
• Lead second-line reviews of escalated customer complaints, including drafting responses to FOS where required.
• Conduct lessons learned exercises with operational teams to drive continuous improvement.
• Provide timely and effective regulatory advice to support key business objectives.
• Prepare and present reports to senior management and regulators.

Who we’re looking for

• Experience: Minimum 3 years in an FCA-regulated role; broader compliance experience within financial services is a plus.
• Regulatory knowledge: Familiarity with CONC, ICOBS, SYSC, CASS, PROD, DISP, Consumer Duty, and third-party risk oversight.
• Commercial awareness: Ability to balance regulatory obligations with business priorities.
• Skills: Excellent communication (written and verbal), analytical mindset, ability to simplify complex regulatory requirements, proactive problem-solver.
• Personal attributes: Team player, self-motivated, curious, driven to continually improve compliance frameworks, professional gravitas to influence across the business.

If you’re looking for a role where you can take ownership, influence the compliance agenda, and work closely with an experienced team in a supportive environment, this could be the perfect opportunity.
