Description

We have some exciting, new opportunities to join the Compliance & Enforcement ID Verification Team, focussing on driving up compliance with the new legal requirements and designing and implementing robust and proportionate enforcement action against non-compliance with the Companies Act.

In your role as Deputy Manager, you’ll be responsible for overseeing compliance with ID legal requirements, ensuring that all companies that must comply, do so. The work will involve translating legal requirements into strategic approaches and practical operational delivery, and monitoring compliance over time.

In this role you will develop a deeper understanding of service users and design initiatives and campaigns to continuously improve compliance. As we grow, you will refine and iterate processes, policies and procedures to encourage users to self-serve and get it right first. And you will design strategic and targeted activities and analyse more complex cases of suspected ID error and fraud to deter and disrupt crime. Ultimately ensuring we strike the right balance between economic growth and robust and proportionate regulation.

As a member of the Compliance and Enforcement ID Verification team, this role is key in designing and delivering our approaches to compliance and enforcement and ensuring we develop a Compliance and Enforcement Service that is fit for our new role in government.

If you are interested in joining us, please apply!
