Compliance Manager - Leading Offshore firm

Compliance Manager – Offshore Law Firm with a Global reach
?? Location:Jersey
?? Salary: Highly Competitive + Excellent Benefits

We’re working with a fantastic offshore law firm with offices in multiple jurisdictions – Jersey, Cayman, BVI, London, Singapore, and beyond. They’ve built a stellar reputation since the 1930s and are now looking for a Compliance Manager to join their London team and support the Senior Compliance Manager in running the function.

This is a brilliant opportunity if you’ve got solid experience in AML and wider compliance, especially within legal or financial services. It’s a hands-on role with lots of variety – think advisory work, compliance monitoring, training, mentoring, and (if you’re up for it) stepping into some MLCO responsibilities.

The Job?

• Providing practical AML/CFT/CPF advice and guidance to the business and fellow compliance colleagues.
• Leading or supporting internal reviews and monitoring, and ensuring lessons are translated into better controls and training.
• Helping shape and deliver internal AML training – both in content and delivery.
• Supporting and developing junior team members (if you have direct reports), including performance reviews.
• Acting as a key go-to for complex compliance questions.
• Supporting new joiners through their compliance induction.
• Assisting the MLRO with internal SAR investigations.
• Getting involved in ad hoc compliance tasks and firm-wide projects as needed.
• Option to take on MLCO responsibilities, if that aligns with your experience and interests (e.g., monitoring effectiveness of controls and training).
• Contributing to team meetings and helping implement key compliance initiatives across the business.

About you?

• At least 5 years of experience in compliance, ideally in a law firm or similar professional services setting.
• Strong understanding of AML regulations and how they apply in practice.
• Diploma-level qualification in compliance (e.g., ICA Diploma or similar).
• Confident giving guidance to all levels of the business – from junior staff to senior stakeholders.
• Great communicator with strong organisation and time management skills.
• Tech-savvy with solid Microsoft Office skills.
• A team player with the ability to mentor others and juggle multiple priorities.

?? Why Join?

• Be part of a well-respected, global law firm with a rich heritage and forward-thinking approach.
• Work alongside a genuinely friendly, collaborative compliance team.
• Opportunity to take on senior responsibilities and grow into an MLCO-level role.
• Great culture, modern offices, and a supportive leadership team that invests in your career.
