- Bachelor's degree in law, finance, business, or a related field required
- Professional certification such as CCEP, CRCM, or CFE strongly preferred

Compliance Consultant Jobs in New York: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a compliance consultant in New York?
Most compliance consultants in New York start with a bachelor's degree in finance, law, business, or accounting, then move into a regulatory or audit role at a bank, insurer, or healthcare organization. New York has no single state-issued license for the role, but employers in DFS-regulated industries expect familiarity with New York State Department of Financial Services rules. Certifications like the CCEP or CRCM are the most recognized credentials and give candidates a clear edge when applying to larger institutions.
How much do compliance consultants make in New York?
Compliance consultants in New York earn a median of about $90,080 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $53,330 for the lowest 10% to over $142,370 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire compliance consultants in New York?
Employers hiring compliance consultants in New York right now include M&T Bank, EY, and SIA, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. New York's dense concentration of DFS-regulated banks, global insurers, and healthcare systems means hiring is consistent year-round rather than tied to seasonal waves.
Which New York cities have the most compliance consultant jobs?
New York, Buffalo, and Getzville have the most compliance consultant openings in New York. New York City accounts for the largest share by far, driven by its concentration of global banks, investment firms, and insurance carriers, while Albany sees steady demand from state-regulated agencies and healthcare networks, and Buffalo draws openings from regional banks and manufacturing firms navigating federal compliance requirements.
Are there remote compliance consultant jobs in New York?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 100% of compliance consultant openings tied to New York are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting how much of the work involves policy review, documentation, and regulatory analysis rather than on-site presence. The most remote-friendly sub-areas are privacy compliance, AML advisory, and regulatory reporting roles that do not require physical access to business operations.
How can I get hired as a compliance consultant in New York with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is through a compliance analyst or risk operations associate role at a mid-size New York bank, insurer, or healthcare system, where teams often hire candidates with strong academic backgrounds and train on DFS and federal regulatory frameworks. Large employers such as Citigroup and New York-Presbyterian run structured rotational or new-graduate programs that feed directly into compliance functions. A CCEP certification candidacy or coursework toward a law or finance graduate degree also signals seriousness to New York hiring managers.
Where can I find and apply to compliance consultant jobs in New York?
You can find and apply to compliance consultant jobs in New York on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings tied to the state. Search by city or specialty to see roles that match your background, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
