Associate / Senior - Accounting and Reporting Assurance (FSI) - Hong Kong

About the Business

The financial services industry and digital assets industry in Hong Kong operates in one of the most dynamic and highly regulated environments in the world. Institutions must navigate an evolving regulatory landscape and engage with key regulators such as the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEx), and the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority (MPFA), etc. These regulators play a critical role in safeguarding market integrity and reinforcing Hong Kong’s position as a leading international financial centre.

As the financial sector continues to grow—and regulatory expectations become increasingly complex—our clients turn to Deloitte for trusted guidance. We support banks, brokerage firms, asset managers, and digital asset platforms in addressing regulatory challenges, strengthening governance, and enhancing compliance and business resilience.

As the leading assurance provider in the financial services sector and digital asset sector, Deloitte is expanding its regulatory compliance team to meet rising demand. We’re seeking experienced, confident, and high-performing professionals to join our established and growing practice. If you’re passionate about regulatory compliance, thrive in client-facing environments, and are eager to contribute to strategic projects and business development, we would like to hear from you.

We welcome candidates with diverse backgrounds and experiences—what matters most is your drive, judgment, and ability to deliver meaningful impact.
