About the position

We are looking for a Compliance Analyst to join our Regulatory Disclosures and Reporting team in London. You'll work with business groups across the firm to identify and meet the regulatory reporting and position disclosure obligations that apply to Jane Street's European business.

Working alongside experienced colleagues, you'll build a deep understanding of the UK and EU disclosure regimes and become a point of contact for traders on how those rules apply to their activity. It's a great opportunity to gain exposure to a global trading business and see how UK, EU and international regulations interact.

Responsibilities of the role include:

  • Supporting our compliance with EU and UK position reporting requirements, including monitoring positions, preparing and submitting disclosures and reviewing disclosure obligations (e.g. under the EU Short Selling Regulation, Transparency Directive and UK Takeover Code)
  • Helping trading desks understand the disclosure requirements that apply to their trading
  • Analysing new and changing regulations, assessing their impact on the firm and helping translate them into clear business requirements
  • Working with our in-house developers to improve the compliance tools and systems we rely on
  • Identifying ways to make the team's controls and processes more efficient
  • Responding promptly and accurately to queries from internal and external parties

This role sits within our Legal and Compliance team, a dedicated group of professionals who share a deep understanding of the law, a meticulous commitment to regulatory protocol and a passion for protecting our colleagues as they focus on their daily work. 

About you
  • Have an undergraduate degree and 1+ years of professional experience; having experience at a liquidity provider, broker or bank is a plus but not required
  • A clear communicator who can explain your reasoning and conclusions to colleagues across the firm
  • A motivated self-starter who can handle competing priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • Have a strong ability to perform operational tasks; detail-oriented and pragmatic with sound judgement
  • A reliable, flexible team player with a positive attitude
  • Comfortable working with data and technology; programming experience is not required
  • Fluent in English

What We Do

Jane Street works differently. As a liquidity provider and market maker, we trade on more than 200 trading venues across 45 countries and help form the backbone of global markets. Our approach is rooted in technology and rigorous quantitative analysis, but our success is driven by our people. Our bright, beautiful offices in the heart of New York, London, Hong Kong, and Amsterdam are open and buzzing with conversation. We come from many backgrounds and encourage travel between offices to share perspectives. Some of our best ideas come from bumping into a visiting colleague at the office coffee bar. Markets move fast. Staying competitive as we’ve grown has required constant invention—of new trading strategies, technology, and processes. We’ve found this is easier when you hire humble, kind people. They tend to help each other, and prioritize teamwork over titles. We invest heavily in teaching and training. There’s a library and a classroom in every office, because deepening your understanding of something is considered real work. Guest lectures, classes, and conferences round out the intellectual exchanges that happen every day. People grow into long careers at Jane Street because there are always new and interesting problems to solve, systems to build, and theories to test. More than twenty years after our founding, it still feels like we’re just getting started.
