We are seeking a Compliance Analyst to join Macquarie Capital Compliance within our Risk Management Group. This is a business aligned compliance role, providing day to day support to Macquarie Capital deal teams and exposure to live transactions across advisory and capital markets activities.

In this role, you will work closely with experienced Compliance managers to support transaction execution by assisting with conflicts of interest assessments, information barrier processes and confidentiality considerations. You will help review and manage wall crossings, insider lists and information sharing requests, and support engagement with the Control Room and Legal on information sensitive matters.

You will also play a key role in supporting Macquarie Capital staff with their personal compliance obligations, including personal trading, outside business activities, gifts and entertainment and continuing professional development.
