Key Areas of Focus

• Advising on the FCA regulatory perimeter and conduct of business requirements as they apply to our proposition

• Guiding our interpretation of the advice vs. guidance boundary — particularly in digital and automated contexts

• Providing expertise on investments and pensions regulation (COBS) as we develop our offering

• Supporting our thinking on Targeted Support and the evolving FCA landscape around consumer guidance

• Reviewing and sense-checking customer journeys, communications, and product concepts from a compliance perspective

• Flagging emerging regulatory risks and helping us stay ahead of relevant FCA consultations and policy developments

• Acting as a critical friend to our leadership — challenging assumptions and offering clear, actionable guidance

What We're Looking For

You'll likely come from one of the following backgrounds — though we're open to the right person, whatever their route:

• Ex-FCA or regulatory policy specialist, ideally with knowledge of Targeted Support and the Consumer Duty agenda

• Senior Compliance professional from a wealth management, investment, or pensions firm

• Regulatory lawyer with a strong focus on FSMA, the RAO, and FCA conduct rules

Beyond your technical credentials, we're particularly interested in people who:

• Are comfortable operating in an agile, fast-moving environment without heavy infrastructure around them

• Have experience advising early-stage or digital-first financial services businesses

• Can translate regulatory complexity into plain language and practical guidance

• Are genuinely motivated by the idea of improving access to financial guidance for underserved communities

• Have exposure to robo-advice, digital guidance tools, or automated customer journeys — even if not exclusively
