About the Role

Allica is the UK’s fastest-growing company and the fastest-growing financial technology firm ever, focused on helping established SMEs, a largely underserved market. The Compliance function provides independent second-line oversight for regulatory compliance risk, ensuring the Bank grows safely by clarifying regulatory obligations and maintaining independent oversight.

Responsibilities

  • Provide independent 2LOD oversight, advice, and challenge on the Bank's compliance with applicable regulatory obligations.
  • Maintain and develop the regulatory compliance framework, including obligations inventory, regulatory change process, and reporting oversight.
  • Support, advise, monitor, challenge, and escalate to the Chief Compliance Officer and relevant governance forums.
  • Own or support regulatory change and horizon scanning, including impact assessment and gap analysis.
  • Review and challenge new product papers, including product compliance checklists and financial promotions.
  • Oversee regulatory reporting governance requirements, including ownership, processes, and controls.
  • Oversee regulatory breach management, including materiality assessment and remediation tracking.
  • Support with regulatory engagement and commitments, including supervisory correspondence and regulatory meetings.
  • Maintain compliance policies, standards, practical 1LOD guidance, and regulatory training.
  • Support HR on SMCR, FIT, and accountability governance.
  • Provide 2LOD oversight of FSCS/depositor protection obligations.
  • Produce clear, actionable compliance MI for senior management and governance forums.
  • Maintain oversight of any other regulatory compliance requirements as required.

Requirements

  • Strong UK banking regulatory compliance experience, ideally in a dual-regulated bank, building society, SME lender, payment services environment, or comparable regulated financial services business.
  • Detailed working knowledge of FCA and PRA expectations relevant to a UK business bank, including SYSC, SUP, PRIN, BCOBS, FIT, PERG, SMCR, regulatory reporting, payments regulation, and FSCS/depositor protection.
  • Ability to interpret regulatory requirements and translate them into practical controls, evidence standards, committee papers, and business guidance.
  • Data-led and evidence-led approach, comfortable using MI, KRIs, breach data, monitoring outputs, and audit findings.
  • Comfortable using analytics and AI-enabled tools safely and pragmatically, with attention to data quality, governance, explainability, validation, and human judgment.
  • Experience building or maintaining an obligations inventory, regulatory change process, compliance monitoring plan, breach/notification process, and senior governance MI.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to produce concise, risk-based reports and root-cause analysis.
  • Ability to challenge senior stakeholders clearly while preserving the distinction between 2LOD oversight and 1LOD ownership.
  • Strong judgment on when to escalate and when to seek specialist input.
  • Practical, disciplined, and comfortable operating in a scaling bank where the control environment needs to mature without becoming unnecessarily bureaucratic.
