griffin - Manager: Compliance Advisory (and Data Protection)
Requirements
• We need a proactive compliance doer first and foremost. You get stuck in without waiting to be asked, and you’re comfortable tackling regulations you haven’t met before. You use your experience and expertise to help our teams find simple, clear and compliant solutions. Your advice is balanced, easy to follow and focused on the risks that matter most. You want to push the business forward, and you see good compliance as part of how we get there. • To ensure this, we're looking for people who have: • Compliance experience in the first (preferred) or second line of a UK regulated firm, ideally a bank, e-money institution or payments firm. • Practical knowledge of the rules behind our products, like Consumer Duty, BCOBS, CASS, FISMA, the Payment Services Regulations and the Money Laundering Regulations. As well as familiarity with HMRC requirements like BBSI and AEOI reporting. • Hands-on experience turning regulation into practical requirements for product, sales or operations teams. • An openness to picking up data protection as part of the role: a genuine interest is enough, DPO experience isn’t required. • A curious, questioning approach. You know the right questions to ask before signing something off, not just the rules to check it against. • The confidence to challenge, clearly and kindly, when something isn’t right. • A love of writing. We have a major amount of written documentation that you will be contributing to, and we place a high degree of importance on clarity and readability (you can find out more here about how we write https://griffin.com/how-we-write). • Ideally, you would also: • Have deep expertise in at least one specialist area, such as payments, cards, Consumer Duty, BCOBS, financial promotions or similar. • Have been a DPO, or worked closely with one, in a regulated firm. • Have worked in finance or banking.
Responsibilities

Apply via the link below, if there's a match our Talent team will reach out to schedule an initial conversation and talk you through what happens next. • WE’RE REMOTE-FIRST • We trust people to do great work wherever they are. We hire across the UK and most of our team works remotely full-time. We have a small London office in Moorgate for those who want it, and about a third of the company is close enough to use it occasionally, but there's no expectation to be there. What matters is the work, not where you do it. • UNDER REPRESENTATION • At Griffin, we’re looking for people who instinctively vibe with our values, behaviours and mission. You’re encouraged to apply, even if your experience doesn’t tick every box. Careers, like life, can take many twists and turns. Your technical expertise and path to where you are today will stand out. We're committed to creating a place where everyone belongs and we welcome diverse perspectives, backgrounds and people who are ready to build a global platform for programmable finance • GRIFFIN BANK LTD REQUEST THAT RECRUITMENT AGENCIES DO NOT SPECULATIVELY SUBMIT CVS TO ANY EMPLOYEE OR ASSOCIATE OF OUR COMPANY UNLESS EXPLICITLY ASKED TO DO SO BY A MEMBER OF OUR TALENT TEAM. • ANY CVS SENT TO ANY MEMBER OF OUR TEAM ON A SPECULATIVE BASIS WILL NOT BE RECOGNISED AND WE WILL NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY FOR ANY FEE OR COMMISSION SHOULD WE SUBSEQUENTLY EMPLOY A CANDIDATE WHO APPLIED TO US DIRECTLY OR WAS INTRODUCED BY AN INSTRUCTED AGENCY THAT MAY ALSO HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED SPECULATIVELY BY AN UNINSTRUCTED AGENCY.
