• Assess existing controls to determine whether compliance risks are being measured and managed effectively.
• Perform targeted reviews, risk evaluations, and audit-related testing to examine regulatory exposure in key operational areas.
• Examine customer disclosures, internal policies, procedural documents, and operational workflows to confirm regulatory alignment.
• Identify weaknesses or potential violations and recommend practical solutions to improve controls and reduce risk.
• Advise business partners and management on fair lending expectations, UDAAP considerations, deposit compliance matters, Regulation GG, and other applicable requirements.
• Track regulatory changes and communicate their operational impact to leadership, including senior management and the Board.
• Deliver compliance reporting, employee guidance, and training that reinforces consistent understanding of regulatory obligations. Requirements
• At least five years of consumer regulatory compliance experience within a banking or broader financial institution environment.
• Strong knowledge of consumer lending rules, deposit regulations, and core consumer protection requirements affecting banks.
• Demonstrated ability to review compliance controls, conduct monitoring activities, and recognize areas of regulatory risk.
• Prior experience in community banking is strongly preferred.
• Background supporting a mid-sized or large financial institution is considered valuable.
• Strong analytical thinking, sound judgment, and effective written communication skills.
