The Value of Active Minds

About Jupiter

Jupiter is one of the UK’s leading investment management companies with over 500 employees and £44.3 billion worth of assets under management (as at 31st March 2025).

Jupiter provides investment services to individual and institutional investors through mutual funds (UK unit trusts, Luxembourg SICAVs and Dublin OEICs), separately managed accounts and sub-advised funds. Jupiter has experienced a period of international growth with offices open across EMEA and APAC.

The majority of our employees are based in our London office located just minutes from Victoria station which provides stair-free access from both the Underground’s Victoria line and National Rail platforms, as well as limited road crossings to the Jupiter office. Our London office was designed to encourage employees to live active, healthy lives with floor-to-ceiling windows that allow for greater natural light and the benefit of a private balcony, table tennis room, cycle storage and on-site shower and locker facilities. The short distance to Green Park and St James' Park also provides employees with a natural space to relax during their lunch break and a healthy alternative to office-based meetings.

We offer our UK employees a 3:2 hybrid working arrangement where Tuesdays, Thursdays and a third day of your choice are worked from the office. The other two days may be worked from home. This facilitates collaboration and allows employees to maximise productivity whilst maintaining a healthy work/life balance.

Background

This role sits within the Portfolio Compliance team, part of the broader Compliance function at Jupiter Asset Management. Reporting to the Head of Portfolio Compliance, you will join a growing team that plays a vital role in safeguarding the integrity of fund management through proactive rule monitoring and oversight.

The Portfolio Compliance team operates as a key component of Jupiter’s second line of defence, ensuring that funds are managed in accordance with their governing documentation (e.g. Prospectuses, IMAs) and remain compliant with regulatory frameworks and internal policies.

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced professional to help shape the evolution of Portfolio Compliance at Jupiter. We are seeking a self-motivated individual with deep expertise in coding rules and managing pre- and post-trade alerts within Aladdin. The ideal candidate will be a credible and collaborative advisor to the business—particularly investment teams—as well as external stakeholders such as management companies, depositories, and clients.

In addition to providing hands-on technical oversight, the successful candidate will contribute to the development of team knowledge, lead process improvement initiatives, and provide subject matter expertise across the firm. This is a highly visible role suited to someone who is both detail-oriented and commercially aware, with a passion for precision and governance.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as a key stakeholder in client onboarding and mandate change processes, reviewing draft fund documentation to:
• Identify and interpret investment guidelines requiring coding in Aladdin.
• Flag non-codable rules and work with relevant business areas to agree on suitable alternative controls or monitoring solutions.
• Take ownership of complex restriction coding, assignment, testing, and approval of rules within Aladdin using BQL, ensuring accurate and consistent implementation of investment guidelines across regulated funds and segregated mandates.
• Perform daily pre- and post-trade compliance monitoring, ensuring adherence to investment restrictions and escalating exceptions promptly and appropriately.
• Manage compliance breaches through to resolution, maintaining high-quality records to support regulatory reporting, audits, and client or depository queries.
• Act as a trusted advisor to the Investment Management Department, providing clear and timely compliance guidance on investment strategy, portfolio construction, and regulatory requirements—particularly in relation to asset eligibility, issuer concentration, and diversification.
• Work in close partnership with the Investment Compliance team, ensuring alignment in interpretation and implementation of rules, and contributing to a consistent compliance approach across fund jurisdictions.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Investment Managers, Traders, Legal, Client Relationship Managers, and teams across Compliance to manage identified risks, drive enhancements, and support a strong control environment.
• Maintain strong awareness of regulatory frameworks (including UCITS, AIFMD, and other applicable rules), and stay informed on jurisdictional interpretations across Luxembourg, Ireland, and the UK, ensuring appropriate rule implementation and monitoring.
• Support wider Compliance initiatives, such as regulatory change projects, thematic reviews, and continuous improvement efforts related to systems, processes, or governance.
  
  

• Deep, hands-on expertise in Aladdin, with a strong command of BQL for coding, testing, and maintaining complex investment restrictions across a broad range of asset classes and fund types.
• Significant experience overseeing pre- and post-trade compliance monitoring within a buy-side firm, with a demonstrable track record of managing complex portfolios and navigating real-time alerts with sound judgment and precision.
• Strong knowledge of investment compliance regulations, including UCITS, AIFMD, and other relevant regulatory frameworks across Luxembourg, Ireland, and the UK. Able to interpret regulatory requirements and jurisdictional nuances to ensure compliant fund management.
• Proven ability to review and interpret fund documentation (e.g., Prospectuses, Supplements, IMAs) and convert them into effective and accurate compliance rules or appropriate manual controls.
• Demonstrated experience in managing compliance breaches through to resolution, including stakeholder communication, root cause analysis, remediation planning, and reporting to internal governance bodies or external parties as needed.
• A trusted advisor to investment teams and other business stakeholders, with the gravitas and credibility to challenge constructively, influence decisions, and foster a culture of compliance.
• Collaborative mindset with a strong track record of working alongside Investment Compliance, Legal, Risk, Fund Management, and Client Relationship teams, ensuring alignment of controls and consistency in regulatory interpretation across jurisdictions.
• Experience leading or contributing to regulatory change projects, system enhancements, or control framework improvements, with a focus on driving efficiency, consistency, and scalable solutions.
• Strong organisational skills with a detail-oriented and analytical approach, combined with the ability to manage competing priorities and deliver to tight deadlines in a dynamic environment.
• Strong understanding of equity, fixed income and derivative instruments.
  
  

• This role is subject to the Conduct Rules set by the FCA.
