Business continuity jobs

Under the SRA regulatory framework, every licensed law firm in England and Wales must appoint a specific individual to take ultimate personal responsibility for the firm’s ethical conduct and compliance systems. This individual is the Compliance Officer for Legal Practice (COLP).

Managing the inflow of new clients and matters at an international law firm is a major operational challenge. With thousands of matters opened every month across different time zones, firms need high-level leaders to keep intake processes running smoothly, safely, and efficiently. This is where the Business Acceptance Manager comes in.

Instead of treating AML checks, sanctions screening, and conflicts clearance as completely separate tasks, firms combine them into a single, comprehensive workflow: Business Acceptance. The professionals running this integrated workflow are Business Acceptance Analysts.
