Note: This is a Surat-First role. We are specifically targeting high-potential candidates from Surat — including CFA / CS aspirants, commerce graduates, and junior professionals from regional brokers. Compensation is honest and will grow fast with performance.
Who We Are Looking For
Ideal Surat Candidate Profile
- CS (ICSI) students — Executive or Professional level — particularly those in articleship or with audit exposure
- NISM-certified candidates (Series V-A, Series VIII, or similar) who understand the regulatory framework
- CA articleship trainees who have worked on broker audits or regulatory filings
- Law graduates or students with an interest in financial market regulation
- Finance or commerce graduates who independently follow SEBI updates and can discuss them intelligently
About The Role
At Stellaredge, compliance is not a passive function. It is an active, systems-oriented discipline. We do not want someone who waits to be told what a new SEBI circular means. We want someone who reads it the day it is released, understands its operational implications, and builds a checklist before anyone asks. This role shapes how operations are designed — not just how they are documented.
Key Responsibilities
- Independently monitor SEBI circulars, exchange notifications, and regulatory updates
- Translate regulatory requirements into clear operational SOPs, checklists, and workflows
- Maintain compliance calendars, trackers, and audit-readiness documentation
- Support SEBI/exchange inspections and broker audits — preparation, documentation, coordination
- Handle KYC/AML compliance checks and ensure operational teams stay aligned
- Manage and respond to SCORES complaints and investor grievances within regulatory timelines
- Coordinate with operations, DP, and finance teams on compliance-linked process changes
What We Are Looking For
- Strong ability to read, understand, and simplify SEBI and exchange regulations
- Excellent written communication — can draft responses, notices, SOPs, and compliance memos clearly
- Systems-oriented thinking — builds scalable processes, not one-off solutions
- CS / NISM / SEBI familiarity preferred; strong potential can substitute for formal certification
- 0–3 years of experience; CS student or articleship background fully qualifies
Nice to Have
- ICSI Executive or Professional level student — Surat chapter members especially
- NISM Series V-A (Mutual Fund) or Series VIII (Equity Derivatives) certification
- Experience handling SCORES complaints or preparing for SEBI/exchange inspections
- Background in CA firm doing broker audit work — you have seen what inspectors look for
Why Join Stellaredge From Surat
CS students in Surat often complete articleship at CA or law firms without ever seeing the inside of a SEBI-regulated brokerage. Here, you work inside one — with direct exposure to real compliance infrastructure, regulatory filings, and audit cycles. This accelerates your CS / regulatory career in ways that a generic articleship cannot.
Green Flags (We Prioritise)
- Has read a SEBI circular independently and can explain what it means practically
- Built any kind of compliance tracker, audit checklist, or regulatory calendar
- Can simplify a complex regulation in plain language — without jargon
- Follows SEBI announcements, SCORES news, or exchange notifications out of genuine interest
Red Flags (We Avoid)
- Treats compliance as a documentation checkbox — no systems thinking
- Cannot explain a SEBI regulation clearly without reading from notes
- Passive — waits to be told what is relevant
- No examples of proactive reading, building, or independent learning
Interview Process
We keep our process short, honest, and focused on real ability — not performance in trick questions.
- Round 1 — Async written screening: 2 questions + summarise one SEBI regulation in plain English
- Round 2 — 30-min HR interview: regulatory knowledge, culture fit, CS/NISM journey
- Round 3 — Case exercise: draft a compliance SOP for a given regulatory scenario
- Round 4 — 20-min final conversation with Compliance Head or Founder
