Senior Associate Equity Insider Dealing team

Requirements of the role

Division/Dept info

The FCA is the UK investigating and prosecuting authority for insider dealing and market manipulation. The Secondary Market Oversight (SMO) department sets our strategy for this work and leads in its delivery. We do this by managing some of the richest datasets and intelligence in the world, deploying state-of-the-art analytics and bringing together a diverse mix of experienced investigators, regulators, markets professionals and data scientists.

We have an exciting opportunity to join one of our Insider Dealing (ID) teams. The ID teams hold the primary responsibility of identifying and reviewing potential cases of equity insider dealing that do not fit the criteria of being perpetrated by organised criminal groups. As part of the FCA’s enhanced focus on non-equity market abuse, the remit and capabilities of these teams are expanding to incorporate allegations of market abuse in the Fixed Income and Commodities markets. This is an exciting time to join the FCA and SMO and help contribute to the FCA’s wider effort to enhance the integrity of non-equity markets.
