Regulatory Engagement Manager

Location: Canary Wharf

We are seeking a Senior Regulatory Management Leader to design and establish a new global shared service for a major financial services organisation. This role is critical to shaping how the firm manages technology, cyber, and data-related regulatory engagement across global markets.

Candidates must have prior experience within a large, complex financial institution (e.g. JP Morgan, Bank of America, Citi, Goldman Sachs or similar) and a strong background in regulatory engagement, risk, and control.

The contract is inside IR35 and the business follows a hybrid pattern, however this role is largely remote-based with occasional travel to the London or Sheffield offices.

Objectives:

You will lead the build and launch of two new shared services that underpin global regulatory management:

* Regulatory Engagement Service – owning the end-to-end process for technology-related regulatory interactions, ensuring consistency, governance, and quality.

* Regulatory Mapping Service – establishing and maintaining a structured inventory of global regulatory obligations mapped to technology, cyber, and data controls.

This is a greenfield-style role, focused on service design, governance, tooling, and team leadership.

Essential experience

* Proven experience in a large global bank or tier-one financial services firm

* Strong background in regulatory management, compliance, risk, or governance

* Experience leading regulatory interactions and regulatory submissions

* Demonstrated success building or standing up shared services or operating models

* Strong understanding of technology, cyber security, and data risk controls

* Experience leading globally distributed teams

* Deep knowledge of regulatory frameworks (e.g. NIST, COBIT, ISO 27001, ITIL)

* Excellent stakeholder management and executive-level communication skills

Desirable

* 10+ years in governance, non-financial risk, audit, or compliance

* Direct experience working with financial regulators

* Exposure to regulatory mapping or regulatory intelligence frameworks

* Certifications such as CISM, CRISC, CISSP
