Compliance Business Partner - Leeds

What you'll help the business do:
You'll help a growing insurance network scale safely and responsibly by ensuring that its Appointed Representatives (ARs) meet their regulatory obligations and operate with confidence.
This is a senior compliance role with a difference: part Adviser, part hands-on reviewer, part Relationship Manager. You'll support an already acquired insurance business as it integrates into the wider network and help shape how future ARs are brought on board and supported.

Why the role matters:
The AR model is a key part of how the business grows its footprint across broking and MGA channels. It allows ambitious, independent firms to focus on serving clients while trading under the business's regulatory permissions.
Your role is to make sure that model works not just on paper, but in practice. You'll guide new ARs through onboarding, monitor ongoing compliance and be the go-to person when issues arise.
This isn't a siloed technical role. You'll be close to the commercial and operational heart of the business.

What you'll be doing:

• Acting as a Business Partner to the ARs and leadership team
• Advising on compliance risks and regulatory expectations
• Overseeing onboarding and approval of new ARs
• Conducting periodic reviews and ongoing monitoring
• Supporting ARs with policy rollouts, FCA guidance and training
• Ensuring consistency across broking and MGA activity
• Collaborating with other compliance leads across the wider organisation

About you:

• You've got experience in general insurance, ideally within broking, MGAs, or networks
• You understand how Appointed Representatives operate and the specific compliance needs they have
• You can hold your own in conversations with senior commercial stakeholders
• You're pragmatic: you balance regulatory requirements with business needs
• You want a role where you can influence, not just implement
