* Join a FINMA-regulated digital bank at a time of growth and transformation
* Take on a broad, hands-on Legal & Compliance role with real business interaction
## About Our Client ##
Our client is a Geneva-based FINMA-regulated bank and part of an international financial services group active in online trading and investment solutions.
The bank operates in a highly digital environment, giving clients access to a broad range of financial markets through advanced trading platforms. Its activities sit at the intersection of banking regulation, financial innovation and technology, creating a dynamic environment where legal and compliance topics are closely connected to the business.
The organisation is entrepreneurial, fast-paced and undergoing several new initiatives, including developments linked to digital assets. This role will appeal to candidates who want more than a traditional compliance position and who are motivated by operational exposure, regulatory complexity and direct interaction with internal stakeholders.
## Job Description ##
As Compliance & Legal Officer, you will support the Head of Legal & Compliance across a broad range of compliance, regulatory and legal matters.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Provide second-line compliance support and advice to internal business and operational teams
* Support the implementation, monitoring and documentation of compliance controls
* Contribute to the review and update of internal policies, procedures and compliance frameworks
* Monitor Swiss and relevant international regulatory developments and assess their impact on the bank's activities
* Support regulatory analysis linked to new business initiatives, including digital assets and crypto-related topics
* Assist with day-to-day legal and compliance matters in a fast-moving digital banking environment
* Review, analyse and coordinate legal or contractual documentation when required
* Work closely with onboarding, operations, risk and business stakeholders
* Support internal projects, process improvements and regulatory change initiatives
* Contribute to a smooth handover and ensure continuity across compliance and legal activities
* Handle a mix of strategic, operational and administrative tasks as part of a lean team
## The Successful Applicant ##
The successful candidate will bring a strong compliance background, ideally gained within a bank, trading platform, fintech, broker, digital bank or financial institution exposed to investment products.
The ideal profile will include:
* Previous experience in compliance within financial services, ideally in a FINMA-regulated environment
* Good understanding of banking compliance, regulatory requirements and financial products
* Exposure to online trading, CFDs, digital assets, crypto, brokerage or investment platforms would be a strong advantage
* Legal background or legal training would be valuable, particularly for regulatory analysis and contract-related topics
* Ability to understand complex regulatory topics and translate them into practical business guidance
* Strong interest in digital banking, financial innovation and emerging regulatory topics
* Hands-on, flexible and pragmatic working style
* Comfortable with multitasking and working in a fast-paced, changing environment
* Team-oriented personality with strong communication skills
* Willingness to handle both high-value advisory work and more operational or administrative tasks
* Fluent English and French are required
* Immediate or short-notice availability would be a strong plus
This role is best suited to someone who enjoys interaction, complexity and variety, rather than a narrow or purely theoretical legal/compliance position.
