  • Assist with the administration and maintenance of the Charles River Investment Management System (CRIMS), including daily mandate monitoring, rule creation, testing, new account setup, and production enhancements.
  • Assist with investigation and analysis for all trading and financial markets related incidents.
  • Participate in the design, refinement, and execution of monitoring systems, internal controls and corporate compliance procedures, and any associated audits and/or risk assessments of said controls and/or systems.

  • Assist the global risk management team with maintaining appropriate risk management systems.
  • Assist the local Compliance and Risk team with the maintenance and oversight of the Code of Ethics, internal register reviews and monitoring programs, as well as assisting with the drafting of compliance papers and working group materials.
  • Develop a commercial understanding of Chapter 5C (Managed Invest Schemes) and Chapter 7 (Financial Services and Markets) of the Corporations Act and associated ASIC Regulatory Guides as well as internal policies so as to assist the business in providing relevant compliance and regulatory advice.
