About the role

The Compliance team is seeking a Compliance Controls Tester.

The tester will be responsible for a key second line of defence role in ensuring Capital One controls mitigate the associated risks, laws and regulations.

The tester will be responsible for executing moderately complex, risk-based control testing under the supervision of a team leader. This will include regulations such as Consumer Duty, Data Protection, FCA Handbook and Vulnerable Customer requirements.

The role requires a tester who enjoys developing a deep understanding of compliance requirements, and conducting testing based on critical thinking, judgement and analysis to validate adherence.

This will involve the challenge of the design of the control as well as the reperformance of manual, hybrid and automated controls.

What you'll do

Conducting effective challenge of the adequacy and quality of a control activity (design and operating effectiveness).
Performing a control evaluation of the first line documentation and results within the risk system of record.
Managing testing schedules to ensure all tasks and reporting are completed within preestablished timeframes.
Analysing data from multiple sources and systematically documenting the work and results.
Exploring different testing techniques in order to optimise the opportunity of validation regarding control performance.
Establishing and maintaining strong relationships with Compliance Advisors and Business Areas as needed.
Use new technologies or data to think about alternative ways to test the control.
Follow documented test plans and testing protocols, leveraging job aids as needed.
Assisting in communicating results to Compliance Officers.

What we're looking for

Experience of controls testing preferably in a financial services organisation.
Have an understanding of what good outcomes are for customers and be able to identify when there has been detriment.
The ability to communicate effectively and provide appropriate challenge both verbally and in writing where required
Ability to document their work in order for third parties and regulators to be able to understand the conclusions
Able to work autonomously and meet strict deadlines for testing
Hold or willing to complete qualifications with the International Compliance Association
