📍 London / Hybrid

🕒 Full-Time / Permanent

This is a rare opportunity to join a high-growth, pre-IPO financial services business operating in a forward-thinking, fast-moving sector. The role sits as the No.2 to the General Counsel & Head of Compliance, giving the right candidate high visibility, responsibility, and influence across the European compliance function.

They are looking for a Compliance Officer (5–7 years’ experience) who wants more than advisory work — someone who can roll up their sleeves and be involved in everything from hands-on administrative tasks to strategic projects. This is a role for someone who is excited to own key compliance processes and help build out a function from the ground up, supporting a growing international business that is currently unregulated but preparing for licensing.

Reviewing and approving marketing, sales, distribution, and financial promotions activity
Ensuring processes, controls, and audit trails are robust and scalable
Managing compliance training programs across the business, including operational rollout
Maintaining risk registers, policies, and procedures, ensuring governance standards are met
Supporting DDQ processes and liaising with external partners
Providing pragmatic compliance advice to business teams
Helping build the compliance function, from administrative processes to strategic initiatives
Acting as the right-hand to the GC & Head of Compliance, supporting both day-to-day operations and longer-term projects

Who They’re Looking For

Qualified Compliance professional with 5–7 years’ experience in financial services
Strong working experience of supporting marketing material from a compliance/audit perspective.

Comfortable working hands-on, supporting the team on operational tasks while also contributing to strategic planning

Strong understanding of UK and EU financial regulation, with ability to make independent compliance decisions

Excited to shape a growing compliance function in a fast-scaling, international environment

Confident working in an unregulated environment with licensing ambitions

What’s on Offer

Competitive base salary
Share options / equity – Pre-IPO upside
Hybrid working (London)
Strong wider benefits
The chance to be instrumental in shaping a growing compliance function at a pivotal stage
