Apply now for an exciting opportunity to join our Firm Examinations Team, focusing on Business Conduct risks associated with Private Placement offerings. Grow your career by leveraging your financial industry or legal experience to conduct risk-based examinations of FINRA Member firms.

Our Examinations Program is a critical component of FINRA's regulatory operations and one of the primary means by which we oversee the activities of our member firms. We take a risk-based approach to our oversight, with the goal of detecting, deterring, or addressing activities that may cause investor harm or adversely impact the integrity of our markets.

Depending on the type of firm and our assessment of the risk, we generally examine firms on a one, two or four-year frequency; at a minimum, every firm is examined at least once every four years. We examine firms for compliance with FINRA rules, federal securities laws and regulations, and, when applicable, exchanges' rules. Areas of review can include Supervision, Regulation Best Interest, Trade Reporting, Anti-Money Laundering, Communications with the Public, Net Capital, etc.

We classify each member firm by primary business model into one of four Firm Groups :

• Retail;
• Diversified, Carrying and Clearing;
• Capital Markets; and
• Trading and Execution.

Each of these Firm Groups has dedicated FINRA staff with knowledge in regulating risks specific to those business models. Your application will be considered for a position within one of our four Firm Groups.

Utilizing your analytical skills, you can be on the front lines of FINRA's Mission to protect investors and the integrity of the markets. We have various levels of Examination Positions open. See below and apply to be considered.

Important Information

FINRA's Code of Conduct imposes restrictions on employees' investments and requires financial disclosures that are uniquely related to our role as a securities regulator. FINRA employees are required to disclose to FINRA all brokerage accounts that they maintain, and those in which they control trading or have a financial interest (including any trust account of which they are a trustee or beneficiary and all accounts of a spouse, domestic partner or minor child who lives with the employee) and to authorize their broker-dealers to provide FINRA with duplicate statements for all of those accounts. All of those accounts are subject to the Code's investment and securities account restrictions, and new employees must comply with those investment restrictions-including disposing of any security issued by a company on FINRA's Prohibited Company List or obtaining a written waiver from their Executive Vice President-by the date they begin employment with FINRA. Employees may only maintain securities accounts that must be disclosed to FINRA at one or more securities firms that provide an electronic feed (e-feed) of data to FINRA, and must move securities accounts from other securities firms to a firm that provides an e-feed within three months of beginning employment.

You can read more about these restrictions here.

As standard practice, employees must also execute FINRA's Employee Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreement without qualification or modification and comply with the company's policy on nepotism.

Please be advised that FINRA is not seeking assistance or accepting unsolicited resumes from search firms for this employment opportunity. Regardless of past practice, a valid written agreement and task order must be in place before any resumes are submitted to FINRA. All resumes submitted by search firms to any employee at FINRA without a valid written agreement and task order in place will be deemed the sole property of FINRA and no fee will be paid in the event that person is hired by FINRA.
