J. P. Morgan Wealth Management - Regulatory Programs and Monitoring Associate

In addition to monitoring responsibilities, you will support regulatory programs and projects across the broader team. You will apply foundational project-management disciplines to help organize work, track deliverables, coordinate stakeholders, identify risks and dependencies, and communicate progress. The role is well suited for someone who has basic project-management experience, demonstrates strong organizational and follow-through skills, and is interested in developing the capabilities necessary to independently manage projects or workstreams over time.

Job Responsibilities:

     Regulatory Monitoring and Oversight

• Support regulatory monitoring activities by developing an understanding of the processes, procedures, controls, and technology established to meet regulatory requirements.
• Partner with monitoring owners and key stakeholders to design, develop, and maintain dashboards, reports, controls, and other monitoring solutions intended to identify potential breaks or weaknesses in regulatory frameworks.
• Analyze data and business processes to identify trends, themes, challenges, and opportunities for improvement, and communicate observations in a clear and compelling manner.
• Produce accurate and timely reporting that enables senior management and control partners to oversee the health and effectiveness of regulatory operating models.
• Identify and escalate monitoring observations, coordinate follow-up activities, and track items through resolution.
• Support or execute remediation and corrective-action activities, as needed.
• Participate in monitoring lifecycle activities and governance checkpoints, applying process-improvement, organizational-design, change-management, communication, and training strategies where appropriate.
• Draft and maintain procedures, job aids, process documentation, and training materials that support team-owned monitoring activities.
• Organize and maintain the roadmap of monitoring needs, adapting to changing priorities and emerging regulatory or business requirements.
• Support records-management responsibilities and serve as an alternate for designated records-management activities.

     Regulatory Project Support

• Support regulatory programs, projects, and workstreams based on team priorities and evolving business needs.
• Develop and maintain project plans, milestone schedules, trackers, action logs, decision logs, and other project-management materials.
• Coordinate project meetings, prepare agendas and supporting materials, document key decisions and action items, and follow up with stakeholders to help ensure commitments are completed.
• Monitor project milestones, deliverables, dependencies, risks, issues, and outstanding decisions, escalating concerns in a timely and appropriate manner.
• Prepare clear, concise project updates and status reporting for project teams, stakeholders, and senior management.
• Coordinate across business, functional, and control partners to gather information, resolve open items, and maintain progress against agreed-upon objectives.
• Apply established project-management methodologies, governance practices, and tools while developing an understanding of the approaches that are most effective for the team.
• Demonstrate strong ownership, organization, judgment, attention to detail, and follow-through in managing assigned activities.
• Take increasing ownership of project deliverables and workstreams, with the goal of independently managing projects or defined bodies of work as experience and capabilities develop.
• Embrace ambiguity, respond constructively to changing priorities, and help establish structure and clarity where processes or requirements are still evolving.
