Director, Corporate Compliance – responsible for building Nscale’s corporate compliance programme from design to reality as we expand globally. Reporting to the SVP, Global Compliance and Ethics, you’ll partner across the business at every level, manage the Senior Manager of Ethics and Compliance, and lead the systems, controls, workflows and reporting that keep the function operating smoothly.

This is a hands‑on execution role: approximately 80% of your time will be spent building, delivering and embedding processes. You should be energized by turning structured plans into operating reality, creating audit‑ready evidence, and helping a fast‑moving business scale with integrity.

• Build and run the group‑wide compliance training programme, including onboarding, annual refreshers, role‑specific modules, and a people‑managers track.
• Own training completion rates and ensure the programme is embedded across the business.
• Maintain all compliance procedures on schedule while continuously improving workflows as operations and the team expand.

• Own the speak‑up hotline end to end – intake, triage, case management, and regular investigations visibility reporting to the SVP.
• Ensure hotline matters are progressed promptly so nothing sits uninvestigated.
• Design and roll out Nscale’s conflicts of interest programme, including policy, disclosure workflows, a disclosure register, and the annual certification cycle.
• Partner with the Senior Manager, Compliance & Ethics to support programme delivery and adoption.

• Drive key risk areas to audit‑ready maturity, producing evidence packs that demonstrate progress.
• Maintain and test the risk and controls register on an ongoing basis.
• Own anti‑money laundering and anti‑bribery controls, ensuring they are documented, tested, proportionate and defensible under external scrutiny.

• Build and maintain the SVP’s primary view of programme health across training completion, speak‑up status, conflicts of interest and controls maturity.
• Own and oversee a live compliance operations manual that reflects how the function actually works.
• Select and implement the compliance management system, designing workflows and backend processes that sit behind the programme.
• Position the compliance management system as an enterprise‑wide GRC platform serving Legal, Finance and Operations, converting the compliance function into a genuine shared service.

• Build a repeatable playbook for standing up compliance in new jurisdictions as Nscale expands geographically.
• Work across business functions to ope rationalise compliance requirements in a way that enables commercial opportunities to scale confidently and sustainably.
• Create practical, proportionate processes that support a high‑growth, fast‑moving environment.

• Training completion rates across onboarding, annual refreshers, role‑specific modules, and people‑manager training.
• Speak‑up hotline intake, triage, case management and investigations visibility.
• Conflicts of interest disclosure workflow adoption and annual certification completion.
• Audit‑ready maturity across key risk areas, controls testing and evidence packs.

• 10–12 years’ experience in compliance, ethics or a related field, with a clear track record of building programmes, not just running them.
• Demonstrable experience designing and delivering compliance training at scale.
• Hands‑on knowledge of AML, ABC and KYC requirements and how to apply them proportionately.
• Experience implementing compliance systems and tooling – you have selected and built systems, not just…
