Senior Compliance Officer – Pension Sector
Over de opdracht
A leading organisation in the Dutch pension sector is undergoing a major transformation: reorganisation and transition to the new Wtp (Wet toekomst pensioenen). You join the Group Compliance function as an independent second-line advisor, ensuring the transition is controlled, explainable, and audit-proof.
You work in a heavily regulated environment where regulator expectations directly shape business decisions. Your role: deliver risk opinions on go/no-go decisions, interpret legislation and supervisory signals, advise on pension communication and member duty-of-care, and report on compliance matters to senior management and boards.
This is senior advisory work with visible impact on strategic decisions. You operate across two locations (Heerlen and Amsterdam) and collaborate closely with senior leadership in a complex stakeholder environment.
