Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Senior Manager, Regulatory Request Coordination is expected to manage and coordinate responses to requests from regulators, ensuring information is accurate, complete, timely, and consistent with Standard Chartered’s policies. The role typically requires experience in banking operations, regulatory affairs, compliance, risk management, or governance, together with strong project-management and stakeholder-coordination skills. Candidates should be comfortable working with senior leaders, legal and compliance teams, business units, and regulators across multiple jurisdictions.

Familiarity with regulatory reporting, issue tracking, audit documentation, and risk escalation processes would be advantageous.
Can I work in Malaysia?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Employment Pass with a Bank Negara letter; RM 5,000+ basic (about USD 1,150) after a 14-day MYFutureJobs advert (exempt at RM 15,000+); 10 years from RM 10,000.
Before you apply: Dealing, advising and senior roles usually need a regulator's licence or approval, which checks your honesty, skills and finances. Ask if your job does.
Watch for: Only basic pay counts towards the RM 5,000 floor, not allowances; from 1 January 2027 EP II and III applications need a succession plan to train a Malaysian.
