Senior Compliance Manager in London

An established Lloyd's insurance broker is seeking an experienced Senior Compliance Manager to join its growing Compliance function.

This is an excellent opportunity for a well-rounded compliance professional with strong FCA regulatory knowledge to play a key role in providing regulatory advice, managing regulatory risk, and supporting the business across the UK and Europe.

You'll work closely with senior stakeholders, influence business decisions, and help shape the firm's compliance framework within a collaborative and commercially focused environment.

We're looking for a true compliance generalist—someone who has gained broad exposure across multiple areas of compliance rather than specialising in just one discipline.

The successful candidate will have insurance compliance experience gained within an insurance broker, MGA or London Market insurer, bringing a practical, commercial approach to regulatory advice and business partnering.

The Role

As a Senior Compliance Manager, you will

• Provide expert, pragmatic compliance advice across the FCA Handbook and wider UK financial services regulation.
• Support the business in identifying, assessing, and implementing regulatory developments and new requirements.
• Prepare governance committee papers, management reports, and present at key governance meetings.
• Support the delivery of the Compliance Monitoring Programme.
• Interpret regulatory requirements across areas including Client Money, SM&CR, licensing, Appointed Representatives/Introducer Appointed Representatives (AR/IARs), and permissions, ensuring they are effectively embedded into business processes and controls.
• Maintain an up-to-date understanding of regulatory developments affecting insurance intermediaries.
• Develop, review, and enhance compliance policies and procedures.
• Drive continuous improvement by challenging existing processes and identifying opportunities to strengthen the compliance framework.
• Support and mentor members of the wider Compliance team.
• Design and deliver compliance training and act as a trusted advisor for compliance-related queries across the business.

About You

• 5–10 years' experience in a Compliance role within the insurance sector.
• Experience gained with an insurance broker, MGA or London Market insurer.
• Broad, hands-on experience across multiple areas of compliance, making you a genuine compliance generalist.
• Strong working knowledge of the FCA Handbook and UK insurance regulation.
• A solid understanding of risk management frameworks and internal controls.
• Excellent analytical, communication, and stakeholder management skills.
• The ability to interpret complex regulation and apply it in a practical, commercial way.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.

Qualifications

Essential

• Degree or equivalent professional experience.

Desirable

• Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) Diploma in Insurance.
• ICA or other recognised compliance qualifications.

What We're Looking For

• High levels of integrity and attention to detail.
• Strong decision-making and problem-solving ability.
• Confidence to influence and challenge senior stakeholders.
• A proactive, collaborative approach and a passion for continuous improvement.

If you're looking to join a leading Lloyd's insurance broker where you'll have genuine influence, exposure to senior leadership, and the opportunity to make a meaningful impact within a dynamic compliance team, we'd love to hear from you.
