  • Strong research, drafting, and advisory skills, with the ability to translate complex regulatory obligations into actionable guidance for business teams.
  • Experience mentoring junior staff, leading cross‑functional compliance initiatives, or partnering with executive stakeholders is an advantage.
  • Candidates with a track record of impactful cases, regulatory submissions, process improvements, policy frameworks, or crisis‑management contributions will stand out.

    • Why Work With Us?

  • Take advantage of strong relationships we’ve built with General Counsels, CCOs, and executive leadership.
  • Work with recruiters who understand the difference between regulatory interpretation and regulatory implementation.
  • We prioritize your confidentiality and privacy throughout the recruitment process.
  • No spamming.
  • Support refining your resume for the roles we shortlist you for.
  • Direct communication channels : bypass gatekeepers and speak directly with actual hiring managers and decision-makers.
