Compliance Manager - Retail Trading Platform

MERJE are delighted to be supporting this leading global FinTech in their search for a Compliance Manager to join their established team.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a high-performing online trading platform which combines scale, innovation, and strong commercial momentum.

The Role

You’ll provide independent oversight, advisory support and constructive challenge across financial promotions and wider business activity.

You’ll work closely with marketing, product and commercial teams — helping them deliver compliant, customer-focused communications at pace, without losing sight of regulatory expectations.

This is a role for someone who enjoys being close to the business and influencing outcomes, rather than operating purely as a gatekeeper.

Key Responsibilities

1. Review and approve financial promotions in line with FCA requirements (Consumer Duty, COBS, FSMA)
2. Provide clear, pragmatic compliance advice across campaigns, digital content and client communications
3. Partner with stakeholders on new products, product changes and strategic initiatives
4. Balance regulatory requirements with commercial objectives and risk appetite
5. Support improvements to financial promotions governance, controls and processes
6. Deliver guidance and training to enhance first-line understanding and reduce rework

✅ About You

1. 5–8 years’ compliance experience within financial services
2. Strong background in financial promotions review and approval
3. Detailed knowledge of UK regulatory requirements (FCA, Consumer Duty, COBS)
4. Experience working in fast-paced, commercially driven environments
5. Confident communicator with the ability to challenge and influence stakeholders
6. Commercially aware, pragmatic, and solutions-focused

Why Apply?

1. Join a globally recognised, FTSE 250 organisation with significant growth ambitions
2. Work in a highly collaborative, forward-thinking compliance function
3. Opportunity to shape and influence financial promotions strategy and standards
