Compliance Associate

Step into a role offering hands-on exposure in compliance for a global leader

Your new company

Join a globally recognised leader and prestigious brand in the insurance market. Working for the Australian office, you will assist in supporting over 150 individual underwriting agencies in a tight-knit, high-performing team. Based in Sydney, the team play a critical role in maintaining the integrity and reputation of the brand across Australia and New Zealand. This permanent role requires full rights and offers a work culture which is collaborative, driven, and deeply committed to excellence.

Your new role

  • Support with regulatory oversight across Australia and New Zealand through managing internal registers, policies, and procedures.
  • Assist with the onboarding of new underwriting agencies
  • Support regulatory reporting for nearly 200 entities, by drafting market-wide communications and monitoring returns
  • Proactively monitor, identify, and assess emerging regulatory developments and assist in anticipating their potential impact on the business
  • Monitor multiple critical inboxes (compliance, legal, accounts) and ensure timely and accurate responses
  • Prepare legal files and assist with processing invoices from regulators (including ASIC, APRA) and suppliers
  • Be cross-trained and participate in various operational functions, including office support and meeting coordination

What you'll need to succeed

  • A keen interest in compliance, regulation, law and/or insurance
  • Experience in insurance, legal and/or compliance is preferred but not essential. However, you must be interested in a varied role; from admin to regulatory oversight
  • Recent graduates in law will be considered, with full training on offer for those interested in transitioning their skills into compliance
  • Those who have been in insurance, compliance and/or regulatory-focused roles who are now looking for a step back will also be considered
  • Strong organisational skills and attention to detail, especially for manual processes and record keeping
  • Excellent communication skills for drafting and distributing regulatory comms
  • A proactive mindset, willingness to learn, and taking ownership
  • Comfortable working across multiple internal systems and managing shared responsibilities
  • Ability to adapt to a fast-paced, high-functioning team environment with a strong work ethic

What you'll get in return
  • Work in a full-time, permanent role offering a hybrid model (Tues–Thurs in office and Mon & Fri WFH once trained), with occasional flexibility for out-of-hours meetings
  • Unmatched exposure to the global insurance market and a highly prestigious brand
  • The opportunity to learn a new way of looking at insurance while focusing on regulatory oversight, reporting and horizon scanning from industry professionals
  • A supportive, tight-knit team and high-performing culture with a strong sense of purpose and pride
  • Long-term career development opportunities, including potential global mobility
  • A role that balances challenge with sustainability - ideal for both ambitious grads and seasoned insurance professionals
