Job Overview :

The role of the Compliance Analyst is to support the Compliance Business Analyst with change projects which range from ‘must-do’ compliance work, strategic product development and internal process enhancements. Ultimately, this role supports the business to ensure that regulations are met across Contis and its distributors.

The focus initially will be improving and validating the regulatory reporting to both our UK and Lithuanian regulators. This will need understanding of the context of the regulatory requirements and in the accuracy of data.

Other areas that can be developed later are Strong Customer Authentication, Onboarding, AML and Financial Crime controls. Deliverables include scoping of reporting requirements, user journeys and technical solutions, to full alignment with Contis’ compliance needs.
