We are working with a leading global law firm to appoint a Compliance Advisor to its London team. As part of a collaborative global function, you’ll help navigate complex legal, regulatory, reputational and commercial risks, advising on client and matter acceptance, conflicts of interest, anti-money laundering and compliance.

  • Monitoring existing clients in line with client due diligence policies.
  • Supporting the development of policies and promoting consistent compliance practices.
  • Responding to queries on relevant legislation, regulation and firm policies.
  • Delivering training and acting as a technical escalation point for analysts.
