Surveillance Compliance Analyst
Buy-Side Investment Manager | Dublin
A leading global investment manager is building out its compliance presence in Dublin and is seeking a Surveillance Compliance Analyst to become the local point person for electronic communications monitoring.
This is not an AML or financial crime role.
This is a high-visibility, autonomous position focused on communications surveillance across trading teams — email, Slack and other electronic channels — ensuring robust oversight in a fast-paced investment environment.
You will report into senior compliance leadership in the US while working closely with teams in London and Asia. As the first dedicated compliance hire in Dublin, this role offers genuine ownership and the opportunity to help shape the local compliance function as the business continues to grow.
The Role
🔹 Conduct electronic communications surveillance across trading groups
🔹 Perform targeted searches and support internal investigations
🔹 Draft clear, concise weekly and monthly surveillance reports
🔹 Enhance and refine policies and procedures in line with regulatory developments
🔹 Partner with global compliance teams on broader projects and initiatives
The Profile
🔹 3–8 years’ compliance experience (ideally within a bank, broker-dealer, RIA or asset manager)
🔹 Direct exposure to communications surveillance strongly preferred
🔹 Strong understanding of global regulatory frameworks (CBI, FCA, SEC etc.)
🔹 Confident operating independently without close supervision
🔹 Resilient, pragmatic and comfortable working in a high-performance culture
🔹 Strong written skills – able to draft clear, structured surveillance memos
This role suits someone commercially aware, detail-driven and comfortable exercising judgement. It offers real autonomy, direct exposure to senior stakeholders and the opportunity to broaden into other compliance areas as the platform expands.
If you are currently in a surveillance or generalist compliance role and want more ownership in a dynamic buy-side environment, this could be an excellent next step.
