About Ember

Ember Group Consulting is a management consulting firm focused on helping organizations navigate complex business challenges, optimize operations, and drive meaningful transformation. We partner with clients across a variety of industries, including financial services, healthcare, life sciences, and energy, delivering expertise in program and project management, process improvement, risk and compliance, and business transformation. Our people-first approach is rooted in building long-term relationships, delivering impactful solutions, and creating opportunities for our consultants to grow professionally while making a difference for our clients.

Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced Senior Process Improvement & Compliance Consultant to join our growing team in a full-time, long-term consulting capacity. This individual will bring a strong background in business process assessment, redesign, and operational improvement, with experience supporting compliance operations, employee conduct programs, or personal trading processes.

The ideal consultant will have hands-on experience evaluating current-state workflows, identifying operational risks and inefficiencies, and designing practical, sustainable future-state solutions. Experience with personal trading compliance, employee account disclosures, trade surveillance, pre-clearance processes, or related regulatory controls is highly valued. While financial services experience is a plus, we are ultimately looking for a versatile consultant who enjoys solving complex business challenges and is excited about supporting clients across different industries over the course of their career.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead process improvement and redesign initiatives, evaluating existing workflows, identifying operational gaps, and developing recommendations to strengthen efficiency, effectiveness, and risk management.
  • Facilitate stakeholder interviews, process walkthroughs, and working sessions with compliance teams, operations leaders, and subject matter experts to understand current-state processes and challenges.
  • Develop detailed process inventories, swim lane maps, and supporting documentation to assess workflows, responsibilities, controls, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Assess business processes across key dimensions, including control effectiveness, operational efficiency, ownership, technology and data, scalability, and regulatory readiness.
  • Support the evaluation and optimization of personal trading compliance processes, including employee account disclosures, trade pre-clearance, post-trade surveillance, attestations, private transactions, and breach management.
  • Identify control gaps, process inefficiencies, and operational risks, developing risk-rated findings and validating recommendations with business and compliance stakeholders.
  • Lead future-state design workshops and collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop actionable process improvements and sustainable operating models.
  • Evaluate opportunities to improve compliance monitoring, reporting, employee conduct controls, and supporting technology-enabled workflows.
  • Partner with compliance, risk, and technology teams to ensure alignment between personal trading processes, restricted-list controls, and surveillance activities.
  • Provide guidance and oversight to analysts or junior team members supporting process documentation, assessments, and project deliverables.
  • Prepare clear, concise findings, recommendations, and presentations for senior stakeholders and leadership teams.

Requirements

Qualifications & Experience

  • 10+ years of experience in process improvement, business process redesign, operations consulting, compliance operations, or a related field.
  • Demonstrated experience leading current-state assessments, process mapping, gap analyses, and future-state process design.
  • Exposure to personal trading compliance, employee conduct programs, code of ethics requirements, or related regulatory compliance processes.
  • Experience facilitating stakeholder interviews, process walkthroughs, and workshops with compliance, operations, and cross-functional business teams.
  • Strong understanding of operational risk, internal controls, governance, and process optimization.
  • Proven ability to identify process inefficiencies, assess risks, and translate findings into practical, actionable recommendations.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, documentation, and stakeholder management skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities, work independently, and lead initiatives in complex, fast-paced environments.
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to engage effectively with stakeholders at all levels.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience within financial services, particularly broker-dealer, investment adviser, or asset management environments.
  • Familiarity with personal trading compliance platforms such as StarCompliance or comparable employee compliance and monitoring systems.
  • Experience with trade surveillance, pre-clearance workflows, exception management, or compliance alert reviews.
  • Understanding of employee account disclosure requirements, brokerage data feeds, and covered-person monitoring.
  • Exposure to compliance technology, workflow automation, or process improvements involving regulatory monitoring systems.
  • Previous consulting experience supporting compliance transformation, operational improvement, or process redesign initiatives across different industries.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
