If we do our job well, we genuinely add to the prosperity of our country and its people.

How you'll make an impact

The Analyst, Investment Compliance ensures the integrity, efficiency, and compliance of AMP's investment portfolios, creating value for customers through operational excellence. You will support the Portfolio Operations & Compliance team in delivering high-quality service, driving process improvements, and collaborating across investment, risk, legal, and technology teams to resolve issues and implement best practices. The role also involves developing and maintaining robust procedures and controls, overseeing investment restrictions and limits, and managing middle office services provided by custodians, including derivative reporting.

• Provide critical support to the Portfolio Operations & Compliance team, including trade management assistance, prompt query resolution, and effective stakeholder liaison (service providers, clients, brokers, custodians).
• Oversee daily monitoring of investment compliance, ensuring adherence to all relevant pre- and post-trade limits, restrictions, and investment guidelines across all asset classes and investment structures.
• Ensure compliance with all governing documents (e.g., Investment Management Agreements, Derivative Risk Statements, Trade Management Policies, market/jurisdictional controls), including monitoring and reporting on exposure limits and restrictions.
• Manage end-to-end breach processes, including reporting, rectification, and resolution in line with AMP Investments' obligations and governance standards.
• Collaborate with Portfolio Managers and Dealers to provide real-time support and resolution for pre-trade compliance issues.

• Actively contribute to projects, partnering with BlackRock and IT to address complex monitoring requirements and leverage technology solutions.
• Drive continuous improvement by identifying and implementing initiatives to enhance processes, increase efficiency, and leverage automation and emerging technologies.
• Contribute to a positive risk culture through rigorous control testing, timely escalation and reporting of risk events, strong preventative measures, and clear communication with senior management.

• Extensive, hands-on experience using BlackRock Aladdin for both portfolio operations and compliance monitoring in investment management or funds administration environments.
• Advanced analytical, problem-solving, and incident management abilities, with meticulous attention to detail.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, capable of effectively presenting complex information to diverse stakeholders.
• Proven experience working closely with investment teams and dealers, supporting both operational and monitoring functions.

You'll thrive here if…

If you can adapt from BAU to the ambiguous with ease, you'll do well here. Change is never easy, so bring your commitment, grit and growth mindset.

Because we run lean, you'll be expected to jump in and deliver across a variety of areas. Meaning, you'll be closer to the action and executive decisions that influence where we go next.

If you're someone that can hold their own, you'll find AMP quite liberating.

Why we think you'll love working at AMP

In fact, most of what makes AMP such a welcoming, enjoyable place to work are our people. Wherever you go, you'll find moments to connect, feel valued and do meaningful work.

Whether it's through our first-class leaders who are invested in you and your success. Through year-round opportunities to volunteer, fundraise and give back to the community. Or in the everyday challenges you face as we work together to strengthen this great organisation. Challenges that will stretch you, amplify your potential and compound the impact you have.
