Through this shared commitment, we foster enduring relationships and advance our purpose with integrity.

The mission of our Field Leadership teams, accomplished through Colleague and Culture Leaders (CACLs) or Regional Leaders, is to reinforce the firm's commitment to compliance by bringing our core values to life through everyday actions and decisions. As part of Compliance, the Culture of Compliance Consultant Team partners with CACLs, Regional Leaders, Market Leaders and Home Office Stakeholders to strengthen a culture of integrity and accountability across the field and home office. Through consultation, education, and strategic support, the team helps leaders, branch teams and home office departments deliver outcomes that reflect our core values and uphold the highest professional and ethical standards.

Through data-driven insights, strategic consultation, and targeted education, you will help leaders identify opportunities to improve compliance outcomes, integrate compliance considerations into regional business strategies, and drive sustainable results across markets and regions. Ultimately, you will help foster an environment where doing the right thing is embedded in everyday decisions and actions. Success in this role requires strong partnerships across Field Leadership, Compliance, and key stakeholders across the organization to ensure alignment, enable effective execution, and strengthen a culture of continuous learning, accountability, and development.

What You'll Do:

• Lead and advance Culture of Compliance strategies that strengthen ethical decision-making, protect client and firm interests, and reinforce adherence to regulatory and firm standards.
• Serve as a trusted compliance advisor to Market Leadership, Regional Culture of Compliance teams, and Colleague and Culture Leaders (CACLs), driving accountability for compliance outcomes.

• Partner with and influence leaders to achieve compliance objectives while balancing business priorities and regulatory expectations.
• Lead cross-functional and cross-divisional initiatives, including program design, testing, implementation, and continuous improvement efforts.
