  • You’ll contribute to creating training materials, FAQs, and compliance bulletins to support regulated parties.
  • You’ll analyze data and generate reports to support risk-based compliance plans and internal decision-making.
  • You’ll participate in occasional on-site inspections and assist with administrative and research tasks as required.

 

Skills and Qualifications

  • Strong analytical, data management, and reporting skills, with attention to detail and accuracy.
