We are looking for a Risk and Compliance Manager who can help us deliver our mission to make it seamless for individuals and businesses to transition to zero-carbon driving.
Joining a growing function, you will work alongside another Manager reporting into the Head of Risk and Compliance. You will be responsible for delivering the risk and compliance team goals which includes work to establish and evolve the function as well as delivering comprehensive and tailored risk and compliance advice and detailed assurance reviews.
The role requires an experienced risk and compliance professional with a solid understanding of the FCA regime and financial services legislation, including in relation to financial crime. A consumer hire, consumer credit and insurance distribution background is preferred, but candidates will be considered from any financial services background. Experience in risk management, as part of a Risk and Compliance function, is also desirable.
In addition, the role requires someone who is comfortable feeding into and delivering against a plan, working both independently and as part of a team, as well as someone detail focused and capable of building good working relationships as part of a second line function, in a business that is rapidly scaling. This is a fast paced environment and one allowing lots of opportunity for growth, training and development.
The role is hybrid and you’ll be expected in the London office at least 1 day a week, with occasional trips required to other regional offices (currently Weybridge and Brighton). Octopus offers a lot of flexibility to get your job done in the way that best suits you and the business, so if location is something you’d like to discuss more, please reach out to us.
