What administrative staffing takes off your plate

Client onboarding Cleared fast, without waving checks through
Ongoing monitoring Actually ongoing, not annual in practice
Exposure in the book Kept out at onboarding, not found at audit
Internal audit Tests whether the process really ran
First client experience Quick, and still properly checked
Transparent pricing

Two ways to hire. Transparent pricing.

Every risk and compliance role prices the same way. Both models carry the same bar: vetted candidates in 10 calendar days and 5-Stage Vetting. The guarantee differs by model: 60-day replacement on US Direct Hire, 100% performance replacement on Global Fully Managed.

When to hire

When client onboarding drags

Most teams wait too long. These are the points where the seat pays for itself immediately.

Client onboarding drags New clients wait while checks queue behind other work.
Checks cleared too fast Speed wins and the exposure enters the book.
Monitoring annual in practice Ongoing review really happens once, at onboarding.
Audit finds gaps The process existed but nobody followed it.
Do any of these sound familiar?
  • Client onboarding takes weeks.
  • Checks get cleared under time pressure.
  • Monitoring is annual in practice.
  • New clients wait behind other work.
  • The audit finds the process was skipped.
  • Exposure enters the book quietly.

Model fit

Where your compliance analysts work best

Hire in the US when
  • Escalated case decisions need a compliance officer
  • Regulator meetings happen in person
  • Attestations carry a signing duty
Hire globally when
  • Onboarding checks follow a defined script
  • Ongoing monitoring is scheduled review
  • Reporting is document assembly

Both models carry the same vetting bar and the same guarantee. Pricing for each is above.

Role / responsibility Global US direct hire Why
Client onboarding checks Global Defined script, staffs globally
Anti money laundering review Global Structured file work
Ongoing monitoring Global Scheduled review, runs from anywhere
Regulatory reporting Global Document assembly with no location benefit
Escalated case decisions US direct hire Sit with your compliance officer
Regulator meetings US direct hire Attended in person
Sanctions and adverse media screening Global Research work, staffs globally
Policy documentation upkeep Global Written work, runs from anywhere

One partner, onshore and global

A US office manager working alongside two fully managed global assistants is a Tuesday, not an exception. You pick the model per desk and we run both under one partner.

FAQ

Administrative Support staffing, answered

What does a risk and compliance desk own?

It owns the file: client onboarding checks, know your customer and anti money laundering review, ongoing monitoring, and the internal audit that tests whether any of it actually happened. The permanent tension is speed against thoroughness, because onboarding is a new client's first experience of you.

Who hires risk and compliance staff through HireHawk?

Accounting, legal, consulting and financial services firms, usually when client onboarding has become the slowest part of winning work. Both hiring models carry a guarantee: 100% performance replacement on Global Fully Managed, 60-day replacement on US Direct Hire. Escalated case decisions stay with your own compliance officer.

Can compliance review be staffed globally?

The review work can. Onboarding checks, anti money laundering review, ongoing monitoring and reporting are structured file work that staffs globally from our six core talent markets. Decisions on escalated cases stay with a US compliance officer on your payroll, which is a governance line we do not cross.

How quickly can we add compliance review capacity?

Shortlist in 10 calendar days from the discovery call, onboarding in 21 days. Both sourcing and 5-Stage Vetting run inside that window. If onboarding is currently taking weeks, tell us the turnaround on the call so we can size the addition against it rather than guess.

How do you vet Risk and Compliance candidates?

5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening, plus a scenario taken from the real job rather than a generic test: the kind of problem the Risk Analyst meets in a normal week. Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented, so what reaches your shortlist is the group that handled realistic work well.

What does a compliance analyst cost?

Global Fully Managed from $12/hr all-inclusive, month to month, which is where structured review work sits. Escalated decisions stay with your compliance officer. US Direct Hire is $995 plus 12.5% of first-year salary, or 15% with nothing upfront, against the 20-30% agencies charge.

Can a global seat see client identity documents?

Under your access controls and your data policy, in your systems, the same as an in-house analyst. Some firms restrict this and use global seats for monitoring and reporting only. Both models work. What we will not do is start a search before that question is settled.

Will faster onboarding mean weaker checks?

Not if the capacity is real. Onboarding slows because one person is doing checks between other work, not because the checks are thorough. Adding a dedicated reviewer shortens the wait without touching the standard, and the internal audit function exists precisely to prove that.
