  • Ensure adherence to all relevant regulatory requirements, including conduct risk, customer outcomes, financial crime, data protection, conflicts of interest, prudential requirements, and whistleblowing standards.

  • Experience within a Compliance function in the general insurance sector; exposure to the Lloyd’s market is advantageous.
  • Good understanding of UK regulatory requirements and supervisory expectations within financial services.
  • Strong analytical and critical thinking skills, with the ability to interpret regulation and apply it pragmatically.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage confidently with stakeholders at all levels.
  • Proven ability to manage tasks independently, prioritise effectively, and meet agreed deadlines.
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset with the confidence to challenge constructively.
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
  • Relevant professional qualifications or progress towards a recognised compliance or insurance qualification are desirable.
