Requirements

What you’ll need

3-4+ years in a compliance role. This could be as a compliance specialist/senior analyst at a background screening firm, in-house compliance at a regulatory body (e.g. FCA/PRA/SRA/CQC/Ofsted), or in-house compliance at a regulated employer in one of Zinc's key sectors (financial services, healthcare, education, EYFS, legal, public sector, security)
You'll need **more than one regulatory framework** under your belt (think SRA + FCA, or Ofsted + CQC) - single-regulator experience alone won't give you the range this role needs
Bonus points: experience supporting commercial or client-facing teams in a compliance capacity
****Skills & knowledge**
Solid working knowledge of at least two of Zinc's core regulatory frameworks (SMCR, DBS, SRA, CQC, KCSIE, EYFS, Right to Work) - three or more is even better
Sharp regulatory interpretation and research skills
A knack for turning regulatory complexity into clear, plain-English guidance
Strong written communication
Broad UK regulatory knowledge across financial services, healthcare, social care, legal or education, and how it translates into real employer obligations
Bonus: multi-sector familiarity, highly AI-literate, and an interest in Zinc's product and the background screening market
