About the role
ABOUT THE COMPANY
Our client is a long-established Australian stockbroking and private wealth firm with a strong reputation for quality advice and client service. It operates across private wealth, institutional sales and corporate finance.
The firm values integrity, ownership and practical thinking, and its compliance team is a trusted partner to the business. People enjoy the collaborative culture, real exposure to senior leaders and the room to make a difference.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Reporting to a forward-thinking Head of Compliance, you'll play a key role in strengthening the firm's compliance and risk framework. You'll start with surveillance reviews, policy work and core BAU obligations, then move into strategic projects as you settle in. You'll work closely with private wealth advisers, branch management and senior stakeholders, including the COO, giving practical advice that supports good commercial decisions.
DUTIES
At Lotus People, we are committed to fostering diversity, equity and inclusion. We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply and will ensure a fair and equitable recruitment process.
Every application we receive is reviewed by a real person, never by AI. If your experience aligns with the requirements of the role, a consultant will be in touch within 2-3 business days for an initial phone screen. Shortlisted candidates will then proceed to a virtual interview with the consultant managing the role.
Due to the volume of applications and the specific nature of our briefs, we are unable to take phone enquiries about roles before an application is submitted. We ask that all interested candidates please apply online and wait to hear from us. Rest assured, we respond to every applicant, regardless of the outcome, so you will not be left wondering.
Lotus People are proud to have been awarded Best Agency for Candidate Experience for five consecutive years.
We look forward to providing you with a positive and respectful experience.
