We are united by a shared passion and no-limits mindset, and our strength lies in our ability to collaborate as a powerful international team comprised of 24,000 employees spanning over 56 countries.

People join Howden for many different reasons, but they stay for the same one: our culture. It’s what sets us apart, and the reason our employees have been turning down headhunters for years. Whatever your priorities – work / life balance, career progression, sustainability, volunteering – you’ll find like-minded people driving change at Howden.

We're looking for a First Line Compliance Officer to work at the heart of our business, partnering with operational teams to ensure compliance controls are effective, risks are identified early and customer outcomes remain front and centre. This is a varied, business-facing role offering the opportunity to influence change, drive improvements and play a key role in our compliance framework.

  • Support the implementation of regulatory developments and business change initiatives.
  • Deliver training, guidance and practical compliance support to operational teams.
  • Review customer communications and financial promotions.

You'll ideally have:
  • Experience within a Compliance, Risk, Assurance or Monitoring role.
  • Strong knowledge of FCA regulation, particularly Consumer Duty and ICOBS.
  • General insurance experience.
  • Experience conducting compliance monitoring, QA reviews, file reviews or assurance activities.
  • Strong analytical and reporting capability, with experience producing and interpreting MI.
  • The confidence to challenge appropriately and influence stakeholders at all levels.
  • Excellent communication, organisational and relationship-building skills.
  • A proactive approach to problem-solving and continuous improvement.

What do we offer in return?

  • Our successes have all come from someone brave enough to try something new

  • We are determined to make a positive difference at work and beyond
