Job Description

At Nortal, we believe complexity doesn't have to mean complicated. That mindset shapes the way we approach compliance, too. As technology evolves and regulation grows more complex, the challenge isn't just understanding the rules1it's turning them into practical ways of working that help the business move forward

That's what makes this opportunity different. Rather than focusing on a single area, you'll work across AI governance, data protection, regulatory change, and emerging legislation. This means no two challenges are quite the same.

  • Support the compliance risk programme, including policy management, due diligence, internal audits, investigations (including whistleblowing cases), and conflict of interest processes.
  • Deliver and coordinate AI and compliance training across the organisation.
