Senior Compliance Analyst - Control Room & Data

Responsibilities

• Maintain and administer restriction lists, including watch and restricted lists, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and timely updates.
• Perform position limit monitoring across asset classes, investigating and escalating breaches, exceptions, and data anomalies.
• Support the firm's information barrier and MNPI controls, including wall-crossing procedures and need-to-know governance.
• Support sanctions screening and disclosure of interest obligations, including large and short position reporting and Takeover Panel disclosures.
• Act as a day-to-day point of contact for the business on restriction, limit, and conflicts queries, providing clear and timely responses.
• Build and maintain SQL-based reports, checks, and tools to support restriction list, position limit, and disclosure monitoring, reducing manual processing and improving data quality.
• Document, review, and refine Control Room procedures, controls, and workflows.
• Gather and write requirements, and work with technology teams to improve the data feeds, logic, and tooling that underpin restriction and limit monitoring.
• Take ownership of process and data improvement initiatives end to end, identifying opportunities proactively rather than waiting for direction.
• Assist with periodic reviews, regulatory requests, and audit queries.
• Contribute to ongoing enhancements of the Control Room framework and its underlying data architecture.

Requirements

• A genuine ownership mindset.
• The team is deliberately lean and does not operate with close supervision: you will be expected to identify what needs doing, drive it to completion, and hold yourself accountable end to end.
• Experience in a compliance, control room, or compliance-adjacent operations function at a hedge fund, investment bank, or asset manager.
• Direct control room experience is a plus but not required.
• A compliance business analyst skill set: requirements gathering, process documentation, data analysis, and working effectively alongside technology teams.
• Working understanding of MNPI, information barriers, and conflicts management principles.
• Genuine data fluency, including hands-on SQL, with the ability to build tools and processes rather than simply consume reports.
• Python is a plus.
• This is not a developer role, but comfort manipulating and automating against large datasets is essential.
• Demonstrated experience balancing BAU control responsibilities with change, transformation, or data enhancement projects.
