Quality Assurance Analyst

Overview

We're looking for a sharp, data-driven professional to join our Governance Oversight team as a Quality Assurance Analyst.

The Role

This is a newly created role within the investment oversight function, reflecting increased demand and focus on first-line controls. You'll work closely with our Investment and Portfolio Managers to identify, flag, and help remediate emerging risks before they become issues. Rather than compliance monitoring in the traditional sense, this role is rooted in data. Think of it as compliance testing through insight, using metrics and controls to improve investment practices and outcomes.

What You'll Do

• Analyse front-office data to identify risk trends and breaches of tolerance.
• Conduct exception-based monitoring and deep-dive thematic reviews.
• Engage directly with investment professionals to understand and resolve issues.
• Recommend improvements to processes, controls, and governance.
• Contribute to a proactive risk culture across the investment business.

What You Bring

• Strong Excel/data skills (advanced Excel ideal; Power BI a bonus).
• A solid understanding of investment operations and/or governance.
• Previous experience in QA, investment risk, surveillance, or a similar first-line control role.
• A detail-oriented mindset with a knack for spotting outliers and patterns.

The Team

You'll be joining a small and focused Investment Governance team, working alongside a highly experienced manager in a collaborative, non-hierarchical setup. While distinct from the Financial Planning team, there are opportunities to move between both areas as your career progresses.
