Mercor is recruiting UK-based Business Operations & Compliance Experts for a research project with a leading frontier AI lab.
We are seeking experienced operators with 5+ years in business operations, internal controls, advertising or marketing operations, risk, or compliance program management.

You'll help create, review, and evaluate high-quality business operations and compliance scenarios, leveraging your experience in internal controls, compliance programs, and operating cadence.
