About this role
Job Description
The Product Compliance Risk (PCR) team sits at the centre of Wise s product development function, supporting our cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional compliant-by-design products for our customers.
We re seeking a highly motivated, customer-centric individual to join our team to leverage their deep understanding of India regulatory requirements and expectations to launch new products, grow our presence and manage compliance risks in India.
This hands-on first line of defence (1LOD) role will involve working closely with product teams in APAC and globally to ensure our controls strike the right balance between meeting compliance requirements whilst maximising customer experience.
This is a hands-on role, with high levels of ownership over:
- Designing and continuously improving our products and controls: Leverage your deep understanding of the Wise product and regulatory requirements and risks to support new product launches. This includes communicating requirements in clear, practical terms, and taking a risk-based, scalable approach with the customer experience front-of-mind when designing, uplifting and implementing controls.
- Regulatory and financial crime risk management: Stay ahead of trends and the regulatory agenda in India, identify, assess and present risks quantitatively and qualitatively in clear and understandable terms, and work collaboratively to define and execute on risk mitigation plans.
- Regulatory change and remediation: Conduct regulatory gap analyses, define and scope actions to remediate gaps, and ensure implementation plans are executed in a timely manner. Collaborate with global teams to identify synergies with programs of work already completed or underway across the Wise Group, and ensure Wise Product teams are aware of the most recent regulations and guidance.
- External engagements: Represent Wise through external engagements such as audits and regulatory inspections, including explaining and defending our controls, and developing and executing remediation plans.
This role will give you the opportunity to:
- Grow your hands-on Fintech knowledge at full speed, with high levels of ownership and autonomy.
- Collaborate with our amazing teams both locally and globally to build state-of-the-art products for our customers that are compliant-by-design.
- Be empowered to identify problems and opportunities, and take a lead in the solution design and implementation.
About you:
- Expert in regulatory and financial crime compliance and risk management in India, with 10+ years experience in financial services (banking, fintech or consulting) and a deep understanding of the expectations of local regulators/policymakers.
- High levels of ownership and autonomy, with the ability to proactively identify improvement opportunities or areas of elevated risk, prioritise, and drive work from inception to completion at pace with limited oversight. This includes anticipating risks and roadblocks, and demonstrating resilience to work through them.
- Problem solving attitude, with the ability to not only analyse and interpret complex regulatory and risk management frameworks, but to exercise sound judgement in proposing and implementing customer-centric and scalable solutions, using data to drive decision-making and quantify risks.
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to effectively interact with different audiences (from Product Engineering teams to external auditors and regulators such as the RBI).
- Strong collaboration skills, to work effectively with different stakeholders globally (such as Product, Risk and Compliance), and to influence without authority.
- Challenge the status quo, thinking outside-the-box and questioning how we can achieve an optimal balance of achieving compliance whilst delivering the best outcomes for our customers.
- Previous experience working directly with product and engineering teams, including effectively translating regulations into actionable business requirements.
- Willingness to travel, as Wise offices are located across different countries.
- Legally authorised to work in India or Singapore.
Nice to have but not essential:
- Previous experience in working in a fintech or a similar fast-paced environment.
- Previous experience working with a PA-CB and/or ADII licensee.
- Experience working in cross-border teams.
