The Compliance Team

Dimensional’s Compliance and Risk Management Department is charged with the development and oversight of the firm’s compliance internal controls, policies, and procedures, and risk management framework. Our global structure follows the sun, with compliance personnel established at each office to ensure compliance coverage around the clock. We have a consultative approach that embeds compliance and risk management staff within the groups they support wherever practical, encouraging communication among teams and improving efficiency with real-time guidance. Compliance teams coordinate the establishment and monitoring of processes and controls for compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulatory standards; internal and client-directed guidelines; and contractual agreements. Team members with Risk in their title work with the business to integrate risk management practices across each department and at an enterprise level.

The role will also provide support within the Compliance and Risk team including maintenance and oversight of monthly monitoring tasks, preparation of compliance materials and supporting the new hire induction process. This role will offer broad exposure to a wide range of compliance and risk functions in a collaborative and supportive team where opportunities exist for members to contribute both to the firm’s success and to their own.

Extract investment guidelines from offer documents, investment management agreements, and other contractual portfolio constituent documents. Assist with the administration and maintenance of the Charles River Investment Management System (CRIMS), including daily mandate monitoring, rule creation, testing, new account set-up, 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 to convey often complex regulatory and investment concepts to internal and external stakeholders. Assist the global compliance team with surveillance and forensic testing of the front office compliance program, as well as the review and maintenance of compliance policies and procedures. 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.
