Career
Are you an ambitious graduate or early-career professional looking to build a long-term career in Financial Services?
We're seeking a bright, driven, and commercially minded individual to join our Compliance team on a 12-month fixed-term contract within a growing Financial Planning business. This role is ideal for someone with around 12 months' experience in a professional environment who enjoys working with data, solving problems, and learning how regulated businesses operate.
You don't need prior Compliance experience. What matters most is intellectual curiosity, strong attention to detail, and a genuine interest in understanding the regulations that underpin the Financial Services industry.
This role will provide broad exposure across Compliance, Assurance, and Financial Crime, giving you the opportunity to develop valuable technical knowledge and build relationships with senior leaders from the outset. You'll receive hands-on coaching, real responsibility, and the chance to develop into a Compliance specialist as your career progresses.
About the Role
You'll support a range of regulatory, governance, assurance, and financial crime activities across the business.
Working closely with the Head of Compliance, Assurance Director, and Financial Crime Manager, you'll gain exposure to both strategic and operational aspects of a modern Compliance function. From producing management information and board reporting to supporting regulatory submissions and financial crime investigations, you'll play an important role in helping the business meet its regulatory obligations.
