Job Description

  • Establish and shape a Group Compliance function
  • Drive ethical standards and operational impact

About Our Client

The organisation is a well-established and sizeable player in the retail industry, with a strong presence in Singapore. It is committed to maintaining the highest standards of governance and compliance across all its operations.

Job Description

This role is responsible for designing, building and embedding a Group‑wide compliance framework that supports a complex, operationally intensive business.

  • Establishing a robust Policy Management Framework, including discovery, rationalisation and creation of a clear, tiered policy architecture.
  • Conducting regulatory horizon scanning and mapping regulatory obligations directly to business processes and controls.
  • Driving a Compliance by Design approach by embedding controls into systems and workflows in partnership with technology teams.
  • Leading compliance digitisation initiatives, including GRC platforms, workflow automation and a centralised policy portal.
  • Building data‑driven compliance capabilities such as analytics, key risk indicators, automated exception management and real‑time dashboards.
  • Shaping ethical behaviour and commercial integrity across the organisation, particularly in high‑risk buyer‑vendor and third‑party relationships.

The Successful Applicant

  • 10+ years of experience in compliance, or regulatory risk roles within complex organisations.
  • Exposure to high‑volume, operational environments such as retail, FMCG, consumer goods or similar large‑scale commercial settings.
  • A proven track record of building or transforming compliance frameworks, including implementing GRC tools and automating manual processes.
  • Strong strategic judgement, with the ability to balance commercial objectives with regulatory and ethical requirements.
  • The credibility and leadership skills to influence diverse stakeholders across procurement, operations, technology and regulatory interfaces.

What's on Offer

  • An opportunity to build and shape a Group Compliance function, rather than manage the status quo.
  • A senior, business‑facing role with mandate to modernise compliance through technology, data and embedded controls.
  • High visibility across leadership and operations, with meaningful influence on organisational behaviour and integrity.
  • A platform to create long‑term impact and legacy in a large, complex and evolving organisation.
