About you - Ō pūkenga
We are looking for someone who is curious, enthusiastic, analytical, and has excellent written communication skills. You might already be working in the finance but want to explore the wider sector. You might have legal or policy experience that will help us effectively influence market participants.

Ideally, you'll have some experience working with any of the finance sectors that we regulate in roles such as compliance, risk, legal, product management, analyst, or research. We would also be keen on hearing from you if you have experience in consulting, or advising the industry participants we regulate or if you have relevant experience from a previous regulatory or policy role.
To effectively influence, monitor, and educate, we will need you to have excellent verbal and written skills so can you articulate complex legal or industry jargon to a variety of stakeholders.

What's special about our team?
The work we're involved in is as challenging as it is interesting. What's more, you'll be joining a supportive team culture working with people who love what they do. We offer a comprehensive induction programme and ongoing opportunities for professional development and continuous learning.
