Compliance Officer

Rutherford Search

About the job

Rutherford is partnered with a technology-driven trading and investment firm operating across multiple asset classes on leading exchanges worldwide. The firm are seeking a trading compliance specialist that will act as a key advisor to the business and manage exchange relationships.

Key responsibilities

  • Monitor and interpret US exchange rules, SEC/CFTC guidance, and exchange circulars to keep the firm's activities compliant and well-aligned with evolving expectations.
  • Design, maintain, and enhance trade-surveillance controls to detect unusual patterns and escalate potential issues promptly.
  • Partner with operations, trading, and technology teams to ensure exchange reporting and membership obligations are consistently met.
  • Support expansion of exchange memberships in line with strategic growth plans (for example, Chicago-based initiatives), providing compliance input during onboarding and ongoing membership reviews.
  • Serve as an internal subject-matter expert on US exchange regulations - offering timely, practical compliance advice to front-office and support functions.
  • Liaise with regulators, exchanges, and external counsel as needed to respond to inquiries or prepare filings.
What you'll bring
  • Proven experience in a compliance/surveillance within a trading, brokerage, or exchange environment.
  • Strong grasp of US exchange rulebooks, membership obligations, reporting standards, and surveillance practices.
  • Comfort translating regulations into clear operational guidance for non-compliance colleagues.
  • Excellent stakeholder-management skills-able to collaborate with cross-functional teams and influence decision-makers.
  • Detail-oriented, proactive, and adaptable in a fast-moving trading environment.
