Job description

Senior Compliance Manager - FTC (12 Months)

Let's transform banking forever

ClearBank is built on the belief that banking infrastructure shouldn't slow down progress. Quite the opposite. Speed it up and that's when you unlock potential. When you really start to innovate.

That spirit and 'can-do' attitude is why our clients - from FinTechs and crypto platforms to banks and credit unions - choose to use our API to power their banking infrastructure.

But it's our people who are the stars here. They power that innovation, push harder to break boundaries. They make coming to work (or working from home) fun. They're the ones we trust to catapult our clients to success. Just as they trust us to build a business that's always striding forward.

What you can expect:

ClearBank is a place where you can do things differently and challenge the status quo. We give you a high level of autonomy and transparency, trusting you to make the right decisions for the bank.

If that excites you, consider joining our Compliance Team as a Senior Compliance Manager, working directly with our Head of Compliance and as a key member of the UK Compliance function.

About the Role

As a key player in our UK Compliance Team, you will provide essential support, input, and independent oversight of regulatory risk management across ClearBank. Your role will be pivotal in ensuring we meet and exceed our regulatory obligations.

Key Responsibilities:

• Support and Oversight: Assist the Head of Compliance in overseeing adherence to FCA and PRA regulations, and drive enhancements to our procedures and systems.
• Regulatory Interpretation and Advice: Interpret and communicate regulatory obligations effectively across the bank and with external partners where needed.
• Review and Challenge: Critically assess relevant management information.
• Guidance: Offer regulatory guidance for new product launches and customer onboarding.
• Policy Embedding: Ensure compliance-related policies are embedded and adhered to.
• Consumer Duty: Support the ongoing embedding of the Consumer Duty.
• Reporting: Contribute to reports for executive and board-level committees.

What we're looking for:

• Regulatory Expertise: Deep understanding of Payments Services Regulations, BCOBS, Senior Managers & Certification Regime, Depositor Protection Rules, Market Abuse, Personal Account Dealing, and Conflicts of Interest.
• Pressure Management: Ability to prioritize and manage demanding workloads in a fast-paced environment.
• Attention to Detail: Strong verbal and written skills, with the ability to articulate complex requirements clearly.
• Team Player: Strong work ethic and collaborative mentality.
• Networking: Ability to build a network of contacts across the bank and externally.
• Proactive: Act on your own initiative to provide early escalation, insight, and opinion to stakeholders.

You will thrive at ClearBank if you are:

• Customer-Focused: Committed to delivering excellent interactions and outcomes.
• Innovative: Driven to continuously improve and embrace new challenges.
• Curious: Eager to learn and apply new skills.
• Creative: Able to think outside the box and solve problems creatively.
• Tech-Savvy: Keen to embrace new technology with an agile mindset.
• Hands-On: Willing to take ownership and get involved in the details.

Our interview process for this role will be shorter than described below.

Regretfully, we are not able to sponsor applicants for immigration purposes at this time.
