Compliance Officer

Have you worked in compliance, quality, audit or a regulated environment and want to develop your career? Would you enjoy researching regulatory requirements, keeping information organised and helping a business improve its processes?

An established engineering manufacturer is looking for a Compliance Officer to support its growing compliance function. Working directly with the Compliance Manager, you'll help monitor regulatory changes, maintain compliance documentation and coordinate activities across the business.

This is a new position with scope to learn and take on more responsibility as the function develops.

What You'll Be Doing As Compliance Officer

  • Monitoring legislation and regulatory changes, including product, environmental and sustainability requirements.
  • Researching updates and highlighting information that could affect the business.
  • Maintaining compliance registers, policies, trackers and document libraries, ensuring accurate records and version control.
  • Gathering supplier compliance documentation and following up outstanding information.
  • Supporting risk assessments, internal audits and compliance checks, keeping evidence organised and tracking actions.
  • Working with departments across the business to develop procedures, gather information and support compliance training.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
