VICTUS SEARCH

An established Guernsey-based fiduciary business is strengthening its compliance function and is seeking a Compliance Analyst to join a growing second-line team. This is a hands-on role offering broad exposure across fiduciary, AML and regulatory compliance, working closely with senior compliance leadership in a collaborative, on-island team. If you are not in a dedicated compliance role today but are keen to transition fully into compliance, this could be an excellent opportunity to do so. THE ROLE You will support the compliance function in meeting regulatory obligations and maintaining a strong risk and control environment. The role sits firmly within the second line and focuses on oversight, monitoring and advisory support rather than client administration. Key responsibilities include compliance monitoring and testing, maintaining registers and logs, supporting regulatory interactions and returns, managing day-to-day compliance queries, and assisting with policies, procedures and internal guidance. You will also support AML/CFT oversight, including sanctions screening, CDD reviews and business risk assessments, as well as contributing to training, remediation work and ongoing regulatory projects. ABOUT YOU You will have experience within compliance, AML or fiduciary services in Guernsey, with a working knowledge of local regulatory requirements. Candidates from trust, fiduciary, AML or regulatory backgrounds will be considered, including those looking to step into a dedicated compliance role. A professional compliance or AML qualification (or active study towards one) is advantageous, as is experience with compliance monitoring programmes, remediation exercises and regulatory engagement. You will be adaptable, detail-focused and comfortable working in a small, growing team where priorities can evolve. Strong written and verbal communication skills are essential. THE OPPORTUNITY This is an excellent opportunity to join a business investing in its compliance framework, offering long-term development, exposure to senior stakeholders and a clear pathway to progression within a structured compliance team.
