You will be part of a dynamic and collaborative team of seasoned professionals, supporting clients with strategic insights and practical solutions in response to evolving regulatory landscapes.

  • Supporting regulatory change projects, helping clients interpret and implement evolving requirements across Cayman, BVI, Bermuda, the Channel Islands, and the Eastern Caribbean.
  • Assisting clients in developing and enhancing compliance frameworks, including policies, procedures, governance structures, and reporting processes.
  • Managing parts or all of an engagement, including project planning, execution, and reporting, while supporting senior team members with external communications and key decisions.
  • Maintaining a strong understanding of local and international regulatory trends and updates - including those issued by CIMA and other regional regulators - covering areas such as AML/CFT, governance, internal controls, FATF/CFATF recommendations and advising clients accordingly.
  • Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients, regulators, and key stakeholders across jurisdictions.
  • Providing input into client business continuity, operational risk, and regulatory risk management strategies.
  • Supporting the preparation of proposals, thought leadership, and participation in business development efforts including events and industry outreach.
  • Contributing to internal knowledge-building, training programs, and regional practice development initiatives.

Key Skills & Experience

  • Prior experience in regulatory compliance, risk management, or a related field within professional services, financial services, or a regulatory body
  • Working knowledge of regulatory frameworks and expectations in one or more relevant jurisdictions (e.g. Cayman, BVI, Bermuda, Channel Islands, Eastern Caribbean)
  • Familiarity with key regulatory topics including AML/CFT, corporate governance, internal controls, beneficial ownership, regulatory reporting, and data privacy
  • Awareness of regulatory developments issued by CIMA and other Caribbean regulators, as well as international bodies such as FATF, CFATF and OECD
  • Strong research and analytical skills, with the ability to interpret regulations and apply them in practical client scenarios
  • Excellent written communication and report-writing skills, with a high standard of attention to detail
  • Capable of supporting or managing multiple workstreams, including task prioritisation, issue tracking, and stakeholder updates
  • Client-facing experience is advantageous, along with the confidence to communicate clearly and build trusted relationships with a wide range of stakeholders
  • A proactive mindset and a willingness to learn from senior colleagues while gradually taking on increased responsibility
  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively within cross-functional and cross-jurisdictional teams
  • Strong interpersonal skills and professional presence, with a collaborative and inclusive approach to working with others
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple engagements simultaneously in a fast-paced environment
  • Professional certifications such as CAMS, ICA, or other compliance-related qualifications are highly desirable
  • Ability to conduct business in fluent oral and written English is a pre-requisite.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
