Temporary Investment Compliance Jobs (NOW HIRING)

About the Opportunity

Confidential Search Solutions (CSS) is recruiting an experienced Compliance Manager to support the broker-dealer and registered investment adviser entities of a growing financial services organization.

This is a temp-to-hire opportunity for a hands-on compliance professional who can manage daily compliance operations, regulatory testing, surveillance, registrations, advertising reviews, and examination readiness across both SEC-registered investment adviser and FINRA-registered broker-dealer environments.

This is not a policy-only position. The Compliance Manager will be responsible for executing and documenting key compliance activities while supporting the continued development of a modern, scalable, and defensible compliance program. The role will also help oversee the responsible use of artificial intelligence and automation within the compliance function.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage FINRA firm and state registration requirements across applicable jurisdictions.
• Support employee registrations and filings, including Forms U4 and U5, fingerprinting, and background checks.
• Own and maintain the compliance calendar, ensuring regulatory deadlines and program requirements are completed on time.
• Lead annual compliance testing and review activities involving advertising, complaints, AML, OFAC, trade errors, cybersecurity, books and records, vendor due diligence, gifts and entertainment, and fees and expenses.
• Manage electronic communications surveillance through Global Relay, including keyword configuration, user access, reviews, and escalations.
• Review and approve advertising and marketing materials, maintain the advertising log, coordinate FINRA submissions, and administer annual advertising training.
• Manage Code of Ethics attestations, written supervisory procedures, desktop procedures, client agreements, and regulatory disclosures.
• Assist with regulatory filings, including Forms ADV and CRS.
• Create and administer compliance training across key program areas.
• Manage compliance systems, including user access, brokerage data feeds, and ongoing platform configuration.
• Identify opportunities to responsibly use artificial intelligence and automation to enhance compliance operations.
• Ensure AI-supported compliance activities include appropriate testing, validation, documentation, and human oversight.
• Coordinate with external compliance consultants.
• Support regulatory examinations, regulator requests, audits, and strategic compliance initiatives.

Required Qualifications

• At least five years of compliance experience within both a FINRA-registered broker-dealer and an SEC-registered investment adviser.
• Active SIE, Series 7, and Series 24 licenses.
• Strong working knowledge of FINRA and SEC regulations, including the SEC Marketing Rule, Regulation S-P, Regulation S-ID, GLBA, and the Bank Secrecy Act.
• Hands-on experience conducting supervisory control testing and advertising reviews across broker-dealer and RIA entities.
• Experience designing, executing, documenting, and monitoring compliance testing programs.
• Knowledge of books and records requirements under SEC Rules 17a-4 and 204-2.
• Experience using compliance technology such as ComplySci, Global Relay, or comparable platforms.
• Strong written communication and documentation skills, with the ability to produce work that can withstand SEC and FINRA scrutiny.
• Ability to manage multiple compliance programs, deadlines, and workstreams in a lean, high-accountability environment.
• Familiarity with AI tools and governance principles within a regulated financial services environment.
• Sound judgment regarding when human review, validation, and oversight are required.

Compensation

Compensation is based on work location, experience, licensing, and subject-matter expertise.
