A rare opportunity has arisen at a West End law firm for a Compliance Manager.
The firm has an excellent reputation and over the past 2 years has gone from strength to strength and has grown in size across all of their core practice areas. They are now seeking to strengthen the Compliance team by appointing a talented legal compliance professional.
The role is broad and will encompass complex AML, PEPs and Sanctions issues as the client base includes high net worth individuals and companies in high risk jurisdictions, conflicts and general risk and regulatory issues.
The Compliance Manager will be responsible for drafting, amending and implementing new policies and procedures and continually assessing any developments that might impact the firm. The Compliance Manager can also look forward to being trained to supervise and mentor the Compliance Assistant and will be a great opportunity to add people management skills.
Essential experience is AML experience in a law firm, conflicts and general risk experience would be an added benefit. A legal educational background is also required, Law Degree, GDL, LPC for example.
This role may suit a Senior Compliance Officer at a large firm/in a large team where there isn’t much room for progression, who is keen to take the step up into a Compliance Manager role.
The firm are open to someone who can grow into the role; so perhaps someone who has unofficially been taking on the complex matters, who has become the ‘go-to’ person for the partners when they have queries or who trains the new starters, seeking to make it official would be a good match.
