Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us “challenge the status quo” and transform the finance industry together. We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in one of the specified locations.

Compliance Risk Assessments help Compliance to prioritize and focus resources towards remediation of identified weaknesses, input to support testing and monitoring, and provide regulatory awareness. The broader Compliance organization will rely on the Compliance Risk Assessment Senior Manager to execute and manage Compliance Risk Assessments to determine areas that present the most significant compliance risk to either:

• Charles Schwab &Co., Inc., and/or Forge Securities LLC consistent with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), while maintaining an enterprise-wide view of compliance risks, or

The role requires strong partnership with relevant Subject Matter Experts as you lead meetings to discuss key risks and identify upcoming risks. There will be significant visibility in this role as the Senior Manager presents and develops standard, and special purpose reports designed to provide Committees, the Compliance Department, and applicable Business Units with information about the results of the Compliance Risk Assessments and/or other bodies of work (e.g., ad hoc projects, results from effective challenge, etc.).
