The Compliance Officer will be a member of the Global Corporate & Investment Banking Compliance team with the objective of providing compliance support, guidance, and oversight to MUFG Bank’s Global Corporate & Investment Banking (“GCIB”) business unit.

Roles and Responsibilities:

The Compliance Officer will assist in the management of a robust compliance risk management program, covering GCIB activities, that fosters a strong culture of compliance.

The Compliance Officer role includes the following:

  • Advisory activities (i.e., activities to provide compliance advice to business areas as well as assisting to resolve regulatory issues),

  • Oversight activities (i.e., activities to provide oversight of each unit's compliance program on-site and off-site to assess the suitability and quality of expected compliance-related activities),

  • Regulation identification, analysis, and change management; policies, procedures, and training development and deployment; business unit, product/service, third-party, or new business initiative risk assessments; monitoring; reporting; and regulator relationship management.

  • Compliance risk mitigation, including compliance controls design and implementation.

  • Timely closure of GCIB and Compliance open issues (related to core compliance topics).

  • Lead miscellaneous and related assigned projects, such as leading aspects of Marketing Compliance and Cross-Border Activities Compliance, and supporting GCIB Corporate Priority Initiative

The right candidate will have:

  • 6+ years in banking compliance experience.

  • Extensive knowledge of banking and securities regulations and environments.

  • Bachelor's degree is preferred, MBA or relevant graduate degree a plus.

  • Compliance certifications (e.g., ACAMS, CRMC) or securities certifications (i.e., Series 79 and 24) a plus.

  • Excellent interpersonal, communications, organizational, and time management skills. Strong analytical and research skills. Ability to self-manage.
