Senior Compliance Officer – Surveillance

Your responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:

• Developing the APAC trade surveillance roadmap, with an initial focus on supporting the systematic equities expansion across new markets, products and trading strategies
• Identifying market-abuse risks and translating new regulations, exchange updates and changes in trading activity into effective surveillance controls
• Applying a structured investigation framework to alerts, including documenting the analysis, evidence and rationale for closure or escalation so decisions can be clearly defended
• Designing surveillance alerts from first principles, including the scenario logic, data inputs, calculations, thresholds, exclusions, testing approach and expected outputs
• Writing clear functional specifications and working with software developers to implement, validate and enhance alerts, data feeds and internal surveillance tooling
• Using Python, SQL or equivalent tools to interrogate order, trade and market data; prototype analyses; test hypotheses; and assess alert performance
• Reviewing model logic and vendor-provided surveillance, challenging systems such as OneTick or SMARTS, and developing bespoke controls where standard coverage is insufficient
• Managing and prioritising alert queues, including high-volume scenarios, while maintaining investigation quality and improving false-positive rates without weakening risk coverage
• Working directly with traders to understand strategies and market microstructure, assess potential misconduct and constructively challenge trading activity where required
• Supporting responses to regulatory and exchange inquiries with clear, evidence-based analysis of trading activity
