Compliance Administrator | Legal Services | Risk & Compliance | Career Development

We’re hiring a Compliance Administrator to join a growing Risk & Compliance function within a specialist property law business. This is a hands-on support role — but it’s also a genuine career launchpad for someone who wants to build long-term in compliance.

Clear progression pathways exist into Compliance Advisor and beyond, with support for professional development, apprenticeships, and further learning including the SQE route for those interested in a legal qualification pathway.

What you’ll be doing

• Carrying out compliance checks and monitoring activities across the business for regulatory accreditations (CQS/Lexcel)
• Maintaining accurate, up-to-date compliance records, logs, and registers
• Preparing and organising documentation for audits, inspections, and regulatory submissions
• Supporting internal audits, file reviews, and data collation
• Handling Subject Access Requests and compliance-related inbox queries
• Supporting onboarding by gathering documentation and completing compliance checks
• Tracking deadlines and ensuring compliance actions are completed on time
• Assisting with internal compliance bulletins and updates
• Monitoring mandatory training completion logs and chasing outstanding requirements
• Escalating risks, breaches, or issues in line with internal protocols

What we’re looking for

• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Excellent written communication and proofreading skills
• Professional, discreet, and confident handling confidential information
• Calm and effective in a fast-paced, evolving environment
• No prior compliance experience required — the right attitude and work ethic matter most
