About the role

We’re working with a cutting-edge fintech client looking to bring on a hands-on Compliance Analyst to help ensure their insurance-based investment platform meets all applicable regulatory, data protection, and cybersecurity standards. This is a pivotal role where you’ll balance operational execution with strategic oversight, helping shape a robust compliance foundation in a regulated, technology-driven environment.

This is ideal for someone with strong attention to detail and regulatory awareness who thrives in a fast-paced setting and can confidently work across both business and technical teams. 

What you’ll be doing:

  • Coordinating compliance activity across IT, Security, Legal and Operations teams

  • Developing and maintaining internal policies, SOPs and compliance documentation

  • Supporting audit readiness and external certifications (e.g. SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR DPIAs)

  • Monitoring data protection controls including access reviews, breach response and subject access requests

  • Managing a compliance risk register and working with stakeholders to resolve control gaps

  • Assisting with vendor due diligence (reviewing DPAs, SOC 2 reports, security documentation)

  • Supporting secure-by-design reviews across architecture, data flows and product planning

  • Tracking regulatory developments and advising on emerging compliance risks

For this role you should have:

  • 3+ years’ experience in a compliance, risk or GRC role within fintech, insurance or other regulated technology environments

  • Practical understanding of frameworks such as FCAGDPRISO 27001SOC 2

  • Familiarity with security principles like access control, encryption, logging, and incident response

  • Experience using GRC tools such as VantaDrataOneTrust or similar platforms

  • Excellent documentation and stakeholder communication skills

  • Ability to collaborate cross-functionally with technical and non-technical teams

Nice to have:

  • Experience working in an early-stage or scale-up fintech/insurtech company

  • Exposure to cloud environments, SaaS tools, or IAM systems

  • Experience responding to auditor or regulator inquiries

  • Familiarity with international frameworks such as DORAUK DPA, or CCPA

This is a unique opportunity to step into a high-trust, high-impact compliance role where your contributions shape how compliance is embedded into a growing fintech platform from day one. You'll be joining a small, collaborative team in an environment that values rigour, clarity, and proactive risk management.
