• Advise senior management and the board on regulatory developments, compliance risks, and mitigation strategies.

• Ensure that compliance is embedded in all products and operations by working closely with Product, Tech, and Operations teams.

• Foster a culture of compliance throughout the organization, including policy development and communication.

• Ensure proper record-keeping, documentation, and compliance reporting for internal and external stakeholders.

• Strategic thinker with strong risk-based decision-making skills and attention to detail.

• Excellent communication skills in English; French or Dutch is a strong plus.

• Ability to lead cross-functional teams and work collaboratively in a fast-paced, innovative environment.

What we offer

• A meaningful role in a growing, international fintech with space to develop and take ownership

• A collaborative and supportive team culture that values initiative and continuous learning

• The opportunity to work on impactful compliance challenges across diverse markets

• Flexibility and autonomy in how you work, with a strong focus on results
