A Q&A with ComplyPortal’s Client Service Analyst

Describe your job in three words.

Challenging, Fun, Satisfying.

How did you get into your current role?

I was looking for an opportunity to test myself in a new environment and moving into compliance technology was an ideal opportunity to do so

What is the best part of working for ComplyPortal?

Working with a great team, where we are all available to help each other out—teamwork gets the job done.

What is your favourite part about your role?

Creating something that exceeds a client’s expectations and knowing that we’ve left them satisfied with their experience of the ComplyPortal platform.

What are your thoughts on the role of technology and compliance?

We know that compliance spans tasks that are challenging and complex, and others that are straightforward but time-consuming. Technology plays a very important in simplifying certain tasks and processes to ensure that compliance staff have more time to spend on the more complex tasks that form part of day-to-day jobs.

What is one aspect of compliance management that you would like to improve?

Moving away from offices full of paperwork—the more processes we can digitise, the more efficient control and management of these documents and compliance processes will become.

What is the best compliance advice you were ever given?

Compliance is a large animal—do not try to eat it all in one bite.

Do you prefer cats or dogs?

Dogs.

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

Sports, Martial Arts, Cinema.

What three things would you bring to a desert island?

My wife, our child, and a laptop with available Wi-Fi.

A Q&A with ComplyPortal’s Managing Director

Describe your job in three words?

Diligent, Reliable, Professional.

How did you get into your current role?

I was first introduced to the legal, risk and compliance industry through a litigation support service provider. My proficiency with technology and software combined with my ability to offering consulting services allowed me to thrive in this industry and move from reactive solutions for legal and investigatory services to more proactive compliance solutions over my 15+ years of experience.

What is the best part of working for ComplyPortal?

Our team – we have great team players with high integrity that can be trusted to help each other out. It is great to work at ComplyPortal where creativity and initiative is respected and everyone works together to get the job done right for our customers.

What is your favourite part about your role?

As Managing Director, I enjoy being able to execute our company’s mission to make compliance simpler. More specifically, I appreciate how quickly and continuously I can improve our offering using direct customer feedback.

What are your thoughts on the role of technology and compliance?

Technology is a must-have when it comes to meeting your compliance obligations. There is simply too much data and too many repetitive tasks to deal with managing all the necessary monitoring processes in a manual way. Using software like ComplyPortal can greatly enhance the efficiency, accuracy, and timeliness of these processes.

Do you prefer cats or dogs?

Dogs.

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

Spending time with family.

What three things would you bring to a desert island?

An expert hunter, bug spray, and a hammock.
