This is a hands-on role suited to a compliance professional with experience in an AFSL environment who enjoys working closely with advisers and business stakeholders to deliver practical compliance outcomes.

Reporting to senior leadership, you will play a key role in maintaining and enhancing the compliance framework while providing day-to-day support across advice, SMSF administration and broader regulatory obligations.

The Opportunity

This role offers the chance to work across a broad range of compliance activities, partnering directly with advisers, planners and business leaders rather than operating in a purely policy-focused environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Review and update compliance policies, procedures and registers

  • Assist with breach management, incident reporting and complaints handling
  • Support compliance monitoring and risk management activities
  • Coordinate and deliver compliance training and regulatory updates
  • Assist with AFSL obligations and regulatory requirements

About You

  • 3-5 years’ compliance experience within financial services
  • Experience working for an AFSL holder
  • Exposure to adviser supervision, file reviews or advice compliance
  • Strong policy and procedure writing skills
  • Working knowledge of SMSF administration and the SIS Act framework
  • Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

What’s on Offer

  • Broad, business-facing compliance role
  • Exposure across advice, compliance and SMSF operations
  • Collaborative and supportive environment
  • Opportunity to further develop your compliance career
