I have just recently accepted a position as Director of Compliance at a Fin-Tech company here in Naples, FL.. My previous 17 YOE were strictly in the Financial industry. Does anyone know what the average salary is for this position? I have a sinking feeling that I accepted the role too quickly without comparing salaries. The position only pays $50k/year. That seems low to me.

Ooof.... that feels ridiculously low. I'm a Senior Finance Analyst with less than five years of experience and I'm making almost double that in Atlanta. I think you probably accepted way too quick. I get you probably need something to help bridge things, but I'd keep looking while you've got this gig.

What a dream that would have been. I’ve been here in Naples for nearly 6 years now and $50k/year is considered high. The average salary for a Compliance Officer is $32k/year. I need to move and look elsewhere but I can’t afford it. How ironic is that?

There are all sorts of remote jobs nowadays. I work in FL near Naples also but for a company based in NYC with an NYC level salary. My wife took a job for 50K and I made her quit... it wasn't worth the income after the taxes and loss of her time lmao.

You accepted an offer of $50k a year? New analysts at my firm make $82 right out of college with 0 skills.

Location can be a big factor along with local competitive opportunities. However, remote work is increasingly impacting companies that have relied on talent that chooses location-first.

What type of compliance are you specialized?

Investment and insurance related.

Seems low

Is there any kind of bonus or performance scheme in the contract? Since you are in compliance and focus on investment and insurance, there is potentially something we could discuss about. You can DM me if you are interested. It is about detecting vulnerable customers prior to selling financial or insurance products to them. This protects the company from fines for misselling.

No one answered OP’s question. What is the average salary for a Director of Compliance at a FinTech company? Unfortunately, I don’t have an answer, but commenting for visibility in case others have a similar question.
