YOU’VE READ THIS FAR! HERE’S WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU:

• At least 3 years of experience in a Compliance role, in the financial services sector.
• A good understanding of the FCA Handbook and Consumer Duty.
• Proven ability to question others whilst building strong relationships around the business.
• You’re ambitious, and eager to progress quickly to grow alongside the company.
• You apply yourself to everything you do, recognising the difference that makes to the business.
• You treat everyone with integrity, respect and kindness - whether it’s your colleagues, our customers, or our partners.
• You’ll be a champion of our values, and encourage others to be the same.
  These requirements are a guide as to what we’re looking for, but if you don’t have all of the skills listed above, that’s okay! Please don’t let that hold you back from applying if the role excites you.

We’re looking for an experienced Compliance Lead to join as Urban Jungle’s first full-time compliance hire.
In this role, you will be exposed to all parts of the business and will have to make sound judgement calls which balance the business’ needs and the regulatory environment it operates in.
You will work cross-functionally within Urban Jungle and bring your expertise on compliance matters, as well as work externally with regulatory bodies such as the FCA.
You’ll work closely with our Chief Financial Officer, Alan Rennie and get lots of exposure to our senior team, who have previously led some of the world’s fastest growing businesses.
