What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters growth, values compliance, and encourages strategic input.

I am an experienced financial regulatory professional with over 10 years of expertise in compliance, risk management, and financial services. My career has been marked by a proven ability to develop regulatory frameworks, conduct in-depth research, and engage stakeholders effectively. Recently, I earned a First-Class BSc in Banking and Finance, which complements my hands-on experience in regulatory risk, process optimization, and compliance adherence.

In my current role as an Inside Information Advisor at the Financial Conduct Authority, I provide guidance on identifying inside information and deliver training across the organization. My achievements include mitigating risk by challenging sensitive documents at the senior management level. Previously, I excelled as an Associate at the FCA, where I handled regulatory inquiries and scored 98% on internal assessments. My commitment to driving policy improvements and enhancing compliance has consistently delivered actionable insights for strategic decision-making.
