Location: Birmingham (Hybrid – 2 days per week in the office, 3 days WFH)

Looking for a role where you can really make a difference?
Initially operating in a standalone capacity but with the remit to recruit your own small, high-calibre team, you’ll be working for a small but fast-growing Discretionary Investment Manager, with around £4bn AUM.
You’ll provide day-to-day Compliance advice to the Board and oversee the management and ongoing development of the Compliance Monitoring plan. You'll also undertake horizon scanning, ensuring the business adapts to regulatory changes accordingly.
In your capacity as MLRO you’ll review the adequacy of EDD, CDD, KYC and KYB other related processes as well as the overall AML/CTF framework and provide ongoing assessment of Financial Crime risks facing the business.
You must gained experience in a similar 'Head of' level role within the Investment Management arena and possess an excellent working knowledge of its regulatory environment, including Consumer Duty and AML requirements.
You’ll have a proven track record of senior stakeholder engagement and possess excellent communication, negotiating and influencing skills. If you've already operated as an SMF16/17 then this would be advantageous (but it's not essential).
You must also be happy working in a hands-on manner – you’ll never be far from the coalface.
