Compliance plays a key role in how a pensions provider operates day to day. This role sits at the centre of that — working across the business to ensure regulatory requirements are understood, processes are followed, and standards remain high.

You’ll be involved in a broad range of compliance activity, from developing frameworks and monitoring activity to supporting teams with regulatory queries and keeping the organisation up to date with regulatory change.
It’s a varied role that combines technical knowledge, collaboration across teams and a practical approach to making sure compliance works in real life, not just on paper.

The role:
• Support the development and maintenance of the organisation’s regulatory compliance framework.
• Work with operational teams to ensure procedures are followed and regulatory obligations are understood.
• Maintain regulatory policies and review marketing and communications to ensure compliance standards are met.
• Support regulatory training initiatives, particularly around pensions regulation and data protection.
• Contribute to the Compliance Monitoring Programme, including testing, documenting findings and tracking actions.
• Assist with compliance reporting for governance forums and oversight committees.
• Monitor regulatory developments and support the organisation’s response to regulatory change and consultations.
• Provide technical support on compliance queries and work with teams to identify and manage compliance risks.
• Support engagement with regulators and preparation of regulatory reporting where required.

About you:
• Experience working within a compliance function.
• Strong knowledge of pensions regulation, the FCA Handbook, UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
• An interest in regulatory developments and maintaining up-to-date knowledge.
