What You Bring
  • A genuine passion for compliance done well, backed by 10+ years in portfolio or investment compliance within investment management or financial services, with deep experience in compliance frameworks, monitoring systems, and shareholder disclosure obligations. You bring a high bar and the drive to raise it, pushing the function and the team to keep improving, not just keep running.
  • Progressive people leadership experience, including coaching, mentoring, performance management, and team development, ideally across multiple locations.
