Careers

Amelia Falla Analyst, Banking and Insurance

Having studied philosophy at university (with a particular focus on ethics), a career at the Commission struck me as the perfect way to strive to help others; you can experience a true sense of accomplishment from the knowledge that your work is dedicated to the aim of protecting individuals and the Bailiwick from financial misdemeanours through the channels of policy, supervision and enforcement.

Conor Osborough, PhD Deputy Director, Risk and Operations

Having moved from academia in the UK to Guernsey, to enjoy family life, the Commission were quick to recognise the transferable skills that I already had. Leading on projects, critically analysing data, communicating insight to inform decision making, problem solving, mentoring and training others are just parts of my varied role. The supportive nature of the Commission and their commitment to staff training are real benefits.

Alice Loveridge Assistant Director, Investment, Fiduciary and Pension

The Graduate Development Programme is an excellent opportunity to broaden your skills; I am doing something different each day which at times can be challenging but, in my opinion, it makes the job a lot more interesting. In addition to being able to move around the Commission during the Programme, there are also opportunities to gain multiple professional qualifications.

Stuart Clavey Analyst, Enforcement

On my first rotation, I was placed in Enforcement, which is as intense as it is interesting and with that combination, no two days are alike which makes for a great working environment. From day one I was entrusted with a whole host of responsibilities and it became clear that I had not joined an organisation that hires Graduates just to serve tea and coffee.

Thomas Collins Senior Analyst, Banking and Insurance

Having joined the Commission on the Graduate Development Programme, I have been able to progress and learn a number of new skills through the range of tasks I have undertaken, whilst studying for professional qualifications. The Commission also gave me the opportunity to undertake a secondment with a regulator of another international finance centre and I learnt a lot from this experience.

Peter Sserunkuma Business Analyst, IT Project team

When I joined the commission I was impressed to find that I would be working in an organisation that was cutting edge with regards to its IT infrastructure and tools. The work here is varied and interesting due to the nature of regulation within the finance sector. Outside of work, Guernsey also has a lot going for it.

Alexandra Bevis Commission Staff Officer

The Commission has an open and friendly working atmosphere, and you are encouraged to be inquisitive and put forward new ideas from day one. Guernsey is a fantastic place to work; it combines the expertise of an international finance centre with work-life balance, and my commute to work consists of a walk along the sea!

Ben Harding Senior Analyst, Investment, Fiduciary and Pension

No two days are alike, with each task presenting a unique challenge to tackle. Having come from a background of physics, I had little experience or knowledge surrounding the financial sector prior to joining the Programme. Fortunately, the Commission operates and facilitates numerous training courses, both internal and external, which has allowed me to expand my field of knowledge significantly.

Eliot Gallienne Analyst, Investment, Fiduciary and Pension

The Commission has an open and dynamic culture, which makes a truly engaging place to work. Not only is Guernsey at the forefront of financial innovation and regulatory developments, but the Island is also a unique and beautiful place to live and work. I would recommend the Graduate Development Programme to inquisitive and proactive individuals, who seek challenging but rewarding work.
