Hnry is growing quickly across New Zealand, Australia, and the United Kingdom. As we grow, our risk and compliance processes need to evolve with us, staying practical, proportionate, and scalable.

This role sits at the centre of Hnry's compliance control environment. You will provide a second-line perspective on operational compliance work - reviewing, challenging, and quality-assuring the outputs of our compliance operations - ensuring we consistently meet our obligations as a Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) authorised agent - while also owning broader compliance responsibilities. You will report directly to the Head of Legal & Compliance.

🚀 Responsibilities

• Review and quality-assure the work of compliance operations, including incident investigations, KYC/AML and EDD decisions, and regulatory reporting.
• Identify patterns or systemic issues across operations and escalate findings to the Head of Legal & Compliance.
• Track remediation actions through to completion.
• Approve or escalate material compliance decisions before they are actioned.
• Manage the ongoing operation of Hnry’s risk and compliance framework across the UK (and supporting NZ and AU).
• Prepare and present structured risk reporting to the Head of Legal and Compliance.
• Lead periodic control effectiveness reviews and horizon-scan for regulatory change.
• Support the operational oversight of AML or Financial Crime Compliance and other regulatory processes.
• Oversee and monitor customer due diligence, monitoring, and related processes to ensure consistency and effectiveness.
• Prepare and coordinate required regulatory reports and disclosures, ensuring appropriate internal review and approval prior to submission.
• Monitor regulatory developments across the FCA and assess operational impacts.
• Conduct internal reviews ensuring documentation is accurate and up to date.
• Review and approve process changes proposed by compliance operations before implementation, and drive your own enhancements, in consultation with the Head of Legal and Compliance.
• Ensure documentation and procedures remain current, accurate, and fit for a multi-jurisdictional environment.
