Full job description
Location: London, UK (Hybrid)
Are you an experienced compliance and ethics professional who enjoys building practical programmes, not just advising from the sidelines? Can you design third-party risk and due diligence processes that work for the business while protecting organisational integrity? Do you want to help shape an ethics-led programme in a mission-driven global organisation?
CFA Institute is hiring a Senior Manager, Global Compliance & Ethics to help build and strengthen our Compliance and Ethics programme. In this role, you will work closely with the Head of Compliance & Ethics to design, build and run practical processes across third-party risk, due diligence, compliance risk assessment, training and stakeholder advisory.
You will play an important role in embedding Compliance and Ethics into how we manage third parties and support ethical decision-making across a global organisation. This is a hands-on senior practitioner role for someone who can combine technical compliance judgement with pragmatic delivery, stakeholder influence and a strong commitment to ethical business practice.
This role carries a global remit across compliance and ethics programme delivery, including third-party risk, sanctions, conflicts of interest, risk assessment coordination, training and stakeholder advisory.
What You'll Do
Design, build and run third-party due diligence processes as part of the wider third-party risk management programme.
Support sanctions monitoring requirements and broader compliance controls linked to third-party risk.
Coordinate and conduct or support compliance and ethics risk assessments, turning findings into practical actions and programme improvements.
Support conflicts of interest review and process, helping to strengthen how the organisation identifies, assesses and manages COI risk.
Partner with stakeholders across Legal, Procurement, Enterprise Risk Management, People and Culture, Internal Audit and the business to provide clear, practical guidance.
Develop and deliver compliance and ethics training and communications that help colleagues understand expectations and make sound decisions.
Use systems, data and metrics to strengthen programme visibility, reporting and continuous improvement.
Help build a mature, ethics-led Compliance and Ethics function aligned to recognised expectations for effective compliance programmes.
What We're Looking For
Significant experience in compliance and ethics, sanctions monitoring, anti-bribery / anti-corruption or related compliance programme work.
A degree in any discipline, with a preference for business, risk management or a related field.
Hands-on experience owning third-party risk and due diligence processes end to end, including risk tiering, due diligence questionnaires, escalation triggers and ongoing monitoring.
Clear evidence of managing, building or improving third-party risk and due diligence processes, with practical ownership rather than purely advisory exposure.
Experience working in a multinational or complex organisation with cross-functional stakeholders.
Ability to translate compliance requirements into practical business processes, guidance, training and controls.
Comfort working in a GRC or vendor risk platform, such as HICX, LogicGate or similar, and using dashboards or metrics to inform risk decisions rather than just reporting on them after the fact.
Strong analytical capability, including comfort using systems, reporting, metrics or data to inform compliance activity.
Sound judgement, credibility and communication skills, with the ability to influence colleagues and senior stakeholders without overcomplicating the message.
Nice To Have
CCEP, CCEP-I or a similar compliance certification.
Deep knowledge of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, UK Bribery Act, anti-bribery / anti-corruption or broader financial crime exposure.
Experience in a DOJ investigation, monitorship or similarly rigorous compliance environment.
Exposure to GRC platforms, case management systems, learning management systems, Power BI or compliance reporting tools.
Experience developing and delivering compliance training.
Why Join Us
Join a mission-driven organisation where ethics and integrity are central to the trust placed in our work.
Help build a Compliance and Ethics programme at a time of strong organisational focus and senior leadership support.
Shape practical processes that improve how a global organisation manages third-party risk and ethical decision-making.
Work closely with an experienced Head of Compliance & Ethics in a lean team where your contribution will be visible and meaningful.
Develop breadth across compliance programme design, due diligence, sanctions support, risk assessment, training and stakeholder advisory.
