Risk & Compliance Officer

Location:  London/Hybrid

We’re seeking a Risk & Compliance Officer to join our Risk and Compliance team, part of the wider Legal, Risk and Compliance function within a large, established international group.

This role offers the best of both worlds: you’ll be a key contributor in a small, specialist, and collaborative team, while benefiting from the scale, structure, and professional standards of a large corporate group.

The role

Working closely with a small team of experienced specialists, you’ll have real visibility and ownership across a broad range of activities, while also engaging with stakeholders across the wider organisation. Your responsibilities will include:

• Responding to Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs), including data capture, interrogation, redaction, and communication with data subjects
• Administration of insurance claims, including notification, investigation, and collation of evidence to support the Company’s position
• Supporting responses to data breaches
• Working with individual business units to develop and maintain risk registers (enterprise, corruption/fraud, and modern slavery)
• Assisting with compliance activities, including conflicts of interest, gifts and hospitality, and ethics-related training
• Supporting ad hoc investigations into alleged non-compliance with Dalkia policies and procedures
• Maintaining and updating the Legal, Risk and Compliance SharePoint site
• Supporting the development of policies, procedures, internal communications, and training relating to business ethics, GDPR, risk, and insurance
• Reporting on internal control compliance to the parent company in France
• Ensuring compliance with UK data protection requirements
• Supporting compliance with EDF and Dalkia standards and requirements

Skills and experience

Experience in two or more of the following areas would be beneficial:

• Insurance
• GDPR and data protection (including DSARs and DPIAs)
• Risk management
• Internal control and compliance

You’ll also bring:

• Strong IT skills, particularly in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, etc.)
• Experience using SharePoint (desirable)
• The ability to manage and prioritise a varied and changing workload
• Strong analytical and evaluation skills

Behaviours and attributes

• High integrity and a commitment to the highest professional and ethical standards
• Ability to build strong working relationships at all levels of the organisation
• Flexibility and adaptability in a broad and evolving role
• A willingness to learn and develop in areas beyond your core experience, supported by a knowledgeable team

Why join us?

This is a rare opportunity to work in a small, visible team where your contribution truly matters, while also gaining exposure to the governance, systems, and career opportunities that come with being part of a large international group.
