Compliance Documentation Associate

The written record

A governance system is only ever as good as the record it leaves behind. Take away the procedures, the versioned approvals and the evidence files, and what is left is a set of habits nobody can prove. That written record is what this role owns.

As a Compliance Documentation Associate you sit inside our Governance & Documentation team and work alongside consultants on live client engagements. You will draft and maintain policies, procedures, control descriptions and evidence files; keep risk and obligation registers accurate as engagements move; and make sure that when an auditor or regulator asks how a control works, there is a clear, current, correctly versioned answer.

This is a structured role with a defined standard, which makes it a genuine entry point for someone early in their career. It is also detailed work that rewards people who notice when a date, an approver or a version number is wrong.

Day to day

• Draft, format and maintain policies, standard operating procedures and control descriptions against our in-house documentation standard.
• Keep client risk registers, obligation libraries and control matrices current as engagements progress — adding new entries, closing retired ones, chasing owners for updates.
• Assemble and index evidence files so that each control has a traceable artefact, a location and a retention date.
• Run version control and approval routing: make sure the right reviewer signed the right version, and that superseded documents are archived rather than floating around.
• Prepare documentation packs ahead of internal reviews, client audits and inspection readiness checks.
• Log gaps and inconsistencies you find, and follow them through with the responsible consultant or client contact until they are closed.
• Support consultants with meeting notes, action logs and follow-up tracking during client workshops.

What we expect you to bring

• A bachelor’s degree in commerce, law, business administration, management, English or a related discipline. Final-year students graduating in 2026 are welcome to apply.
• 0–2 years of experience. Internships or coursework in compliance, audit support, legal documentation, quality management or company secretarial work are a plus, but not required.
• Strong written English — you will be writing documents that clients and auditors read.
• Genuine attention to detail. This role involves checking dates, versions, approvers and cross-references, repeatedly and carefully.
• Comfort with Microsoft Word and Excel or Google Docs and Sheets, including tables, formatting styles and basic formulas.
• The discipline to follow a defined standard rather than inventing your own format, and the confidence to flag when the standard does not fit the situation.

Nice to have: exposure to ISO management systems, internal audit, SOX-style control testing, regulatory reporting, or a professional qualification in progress (CS, CA inter, LLB, CIA).

First six months

• Weeks 1–4: documentation standard training, shadowing on a live engagement, first drafts reviewed line by line.
• Months 2–3: you own the documentation workstream for one client, with a consultant reviewing before issue.
• Months 4–6: you run register maintenance and evidence assembly independently across two engagements and contribute to inspection-readiness packs.

Pay and benefits

• Annual salary of ₹3.8–5.2 LPA depending on experience and interview outcome, reviewed at twelve months.
• Hybrid working from our Bengaluru office, or fully remote within India for candidates outside Bengaluru. Core overlap hours 10:00–18:00 IST, Monday to Friday.
• Structured onboarding, a written documentation standard, and a named reviewer for your first three months — you will not be left guessing what “good” looks like.
• Support towards a professional qualification after the probation period, including study leave for examinations.
• Statutory benefits including provident fund and paid leave, plus 12 days of casual and sick leave and 18 days of earned leave annually.
• Direct exposure to senior client stakeholders in a 2–10 person practice, rather than three layers removed from the work.
