About Woodstock Legal Services: Woodstock Legal Services isn’t your typical law firm. We’re breaking the mold – ditching the jargon, delivering expert advice, and doing things differently in the legal world. We've gathered our wisdom from years of legal experience and paired it with a willingness to break the mold. At Woodstock, you’ll be part of a people-first culture where ideas are welcomed, collaboration is second nature, and your contribution really matters. We invest in our internal teams because we know they’re the engine that keeps everything running and we’re proud of the culture we’ve built together. About Woodstock Legal Services & Lawhive Partnership The Woodstock vision was to create a law firm that felt different, one where lawyers had true freedom and flexibility within a community of grade A lawyers and the best operational and regulatory support on offer - all while ensuring our clients remain our constant focus. Since 2014, Woodstock has grown into a thriving community of lawyers, built on the principle that legal practice can be both professional and personal. We set out to create a place where lawyers have the freedom to shape fulfilling careers, and where clients benefit from clear, expert advice delivered with genuine care. That vision remains at the heart of everything we do. By joining the Lawhive Group, we are strengthening this vision - combining the trusted relationships and values that define Woodstock, with innovative tools that ease the pressures of legal work. This means our lawyers can dedicate more time to what matters most: guiding and supporting our clients. ABOUT THE ROLE Compliance sits at the heart of Woodstock Legal Services. It keeps client money safe, files moving and the firm on the right side of its regulators - and as the business grows, so does the volume and variety of that work. We are excited to create two Junior Compliance Officer roles to work alongside the Senior Compliance Associate and give the function the depth and resilience it needs. This is not a box-ticking job. You will be close to real matters and real deadlines, helping make sure the firm operates compliantly, complex AML/ KYC checks are complete, evidence is captured properly and proportionate compliance support is provided to stakeholders. You will see the full breadth of compliance in a modern legal business via routine work and fresh legal projects touching on AML, data protection, conflicts, policy etc. Both roles share the same profile. Day-to-day focus is likely to a blend of high-risk AML/KYC, general compliance support with pre-completion escalations, data protection, SAR administration and strategic/ policy and legal governance work – with cross-training across everything. What You’ll Be Doing * Supporting AML/KYC administration – gathering, tracking and recording evidence, and following up on source of funds and source of wealth queries. * Performing regular horizon scanning and taking a proactive stance in implementing the relevant outcomes * Supporting SAR and data protection administration, including collating evidence for data breach assessments, assisting with containment actions and notifications where required. * Co-ordinating cyclical processes and activities. * Preparing reports, drafting guidance notes and supporting communication on key compliance themes, performing data analysis and presenting to key stakeholders/ leadership team. * Monitoring the central Compliance inbox, maintaining registers, dashboards, trackers and compliance records accurate and up to date, so there is always a clear audit trail – open to the use of technology. * Tracking policy reviews via a clear governance framework, and helping keep guidance, training and process documents current * Being a reliable first point of contact for consultants, Support, Accounts and Operations on routine compliance questions. * Chasing outstanding items politely and persistently - a surprising amount of good compliance is simply excellent follow-through. * Preparing higher-risk or complex matters for escalation to the Senior Compliance Associate and leadership team, with the background pulled together and ready. * Supporting the Senior Compliance Associate with embedding a culture of compliance and establishing a compliance learning programme from scratch. * Leading compliance projects to meet organisational goals and achieve marginal gains. What We’re Looking For * Experience in a law firm or other regulated environment, especially familiarity with AML/KYC, SRA requirements and data protection basics. * Organised: you keep lists, close loops and nothing slips through. * Attention to detail - names, dates, figures and documents all matter here. * Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and navigate complex matters with limited supervision. * A clear, warm communicator and a team player who values their autonomy. * Completely trustworthy with confidential and sensitive information. * Curious about how legal and regulatory in-house compliance works, and keen to build a career in it. * Comfortable juggling several workstreams and asking for help when priorities clash. What You’ll Get * Training and day-to-day mentoring from senior Compliance colleagues. * Real exposure to AML, financial crime, data protection, conflicts and policy work – breadth that is hard to find at this level. * A clear developmental path to grow as the Compliance function expands. * A supportive, close-knit team in a business that is scaling – your work will be visible and valued. INTERVIEW PROCESS * Introductory call with our Talent team * Technical interview/practical skills assessment * Values interview with our Leadership * We offer!

This is NTNU​ NTNU is a broad-based university with a technical-scientific profile and a focus in professional education. The university is located in three cities with headquarters in Trondheim. At NTNU, 9,000 employees and 43,000 students work to create knowledge for a better world. You can find more information about working at NTNU and the application process here.       Video: https://youtu.be/Xt-yHCN5QS0About the position​ The position is part of the research project “Prediction of genetic values and adaptive potential in the wild (GPWILD)” (https://www.ntnu.no/gjaerevoll/gpwild), funded through a Consolidator Grant by the European Research Council (ERC). A major goal of the project is to develop cutting-edge statistical methodology to analyse and make predictions from large-scale genomic data, which is currently generated for many wild animal populations. To this end, the project combines modern statistical methodology and builds on the current state-of-the art in animal breeding, human genomics, ecology and evolutionary biology. The post-doc will thus work with a cross-disciplinary team of researchers and can contribute towards the development of methods that will make an impact to better understand evolution and the robustness of wild anmial populations, with the ultimate goal to help preserving biodiversity. The post-doc will work at NTNU in Trondheim, and the fellowship will be hosted by the Department of Mathematical Sciences (https://www.ntnu.edu/imf). The project is a close collaboration with evolutionary ecologists from the Department of Biology (https://www.ntnu.edu/biology) and the Gjærevoll Centre (https://www.ntnu.edu/gjaerevoll) at NTNU, as well as with international researchers in the field. The successful applicant will be offered a 3,5 year position, including 6 months for career enhancing work. Duties of the position​ • Develop and implement new efficient and accurate statistical methods for genomic prediction, as well as for the decomposition of phenotypic variance into components relevant for evolutionary processes. This is done using genomic data from wild animal populations. • Use the new methods to derive insight into evolutionary processes of the study systems of our collaborators. • Core components of the research involve, among others, Bayesian hierarchical modelling, shrinkage methods, machine learning (ML) or dimension reduction approaches, generalized linear mixed modeling, and performing simulations using specialized statistical programming tools. • Writing and publishing papers in international, peer-reviewed journals. • An important part of the project is collaboration with evolutionary biologists, mostly at NTNU, but also internationally. The post-doc is therefore expected to maintain and nourish these collaborations, as well as disseminate their statistical research to a broader scientific audience. • Participate in international activities such as conferences and/or research stays at foreign educational institutions. • Teaching and other career enhancing duties such as mentoring PhD and Master students. • The cadidate is expected to show a high level of initiative, motivation and independence for research and writing. Required selection criteria​ • You must have completed a Norwegian doctoral degree or corresponding foreign doctoral degree recognized as equivalent to a Norwegian PhD in Statistics or equivalent. • If you are in the final phase of your doctorate and can document that the thesis has been submitted or that the defense date has been confirmed, your application can be considered even if you have not defended. NOTE: Documentation of the obtained doctorate must be presented before you can take up the position. • Keen interest in ecological statistics and cross-disciplinary scientific research. • Solid background in statistical modelling. • Experience with the use of large datasets. • Strong skills in computer programming and computational statistics. • Very good oral and written skills in English. • Strong academic background documented with publications in international peer-reviewed journals.
