Compliance Manager

Our client, a Full-Service Law Firm, is looking for a Compliance Manager to join them in Birmingham. The main purpose of this role is to ensure that all risk management and compliance policies, controls and procedures within the firm meet regulatory standards and regulations.

The ideal candidate will have experience in a risk and compliance-based role within a law firm or equivalent legal environment, wherein a good working knowledge of relevant laws, regulations, and codes of conduct has been earned. 

Some Responsibilities:

• Analyse systems to ensure compliance with best practice

• Lead risk assessment training for the wider team
