Job CategoryRisk ControlPosition TypePermanentTarget Openings1What Is the Opportunity?Here’s what you’ll be doing:Join our Second Line Risk and Compliance team in London to lead a digital transformation in how we protect our customers. You will be at the heart of our mission to champion fair value for over 900,000 small business owners, ensuring they receive the positive outcomes they deserve. By embedding the Consumer Duty principle through powerful data storytelling and testing, you’ll help us maintain an ethical culture and provide a second-line challenge that translates regulatory goals into tangible customer and commercial benefits.
What makes this role different? You won’t be stuck with manual, periodic reviews; instead, you’ll be pioneering a continuous, data-driven assurance model. You’ll have high-level visibility, collaborating directly with senior stakeholders to shape the future of oversight using data and AI-powered predictive analytics. This is a chance to move beyond identifying governance and process gaps and instead influence the strategic direction of a refreshing, spirited team that isn’t afraid to challenge the status quo.
As our Conduct & Outcome Oversight Manager you’ll:
Oversee conduct and customer outcome metrics in real-time to provide early warnings before the business nears its risk appetite.
Provide ongoing assurance of the effectiveness of our product governance arrangements and the outcomes they are achieving.
Seek and implement automated and AI-driven ways to monitor customer interactions for vulnerability signals and fair value friction points.
Predict emerging risks by using automated scanning tools to monitor social media and market trends.
Perform deep-dive effectiveness testing on customer-facing controls to prove they deliver fair and reliable outcomes.
Analyse the underlying conduct and root causes behind failures rather than just identifying simple process gaps.
Support Compliance Business Partners to test process designs and ensure they align with regulatory expectations.
Inform continuous compliance policy and education improvements based on the insights and findings you uncover
We’re looking for someone who is:
An insurance sector expert with a solid understanding of the industry and its specific regulatory landscape.
A technical compliance master with extensive knowledge of FCA Conduct Rules and the practical application of Consumer Duty.
An expert analyst with a proven ability to identify risks within complex data and deliver high-impact data visualisation/reporting.
An automation leader with significant experience using AI and automated tools to build scalable compliance processes.
An influential communicator who can speak data to developers, profit to commercial leads, and protection to management and the Board.
A strategic challenger with the courage to provide robust second-line oversight while offering commercial recommendations.
(We know it’s tough, but please try to avoid the confidence gap. You don’t have to match all the bullet points above to be considered for this role.)
We encourage people of all different backgrounds and identities to apply. We are committed to maintaining an inclusive, supportive place for you to be you and do your very best work.
If you are ready to pioneer a data-driven approach to oversight and ensure our small business customers always receive fair value, your expertise will be vital in helping us enable big dreams. Apply today.
