At GoCardless, we're all about supporting you! We're committed to making our hiring process inclusive and accessible. If you need extra support or adjustments, reach out to your Talent Partner — we're here to help!
And remember: we don't expect you to meet every single requirement. If you're excited by this role, we encourage you to apply!
You'll be someone who enjoys driving processes through from design to conclusion, taking a proactive approach to managing regulatory obligations across our licences and regulated entities. You will have a great head for project management and organisation. Be comfortable working both independently and collaboratively, knowing when to seek guidance from senior stakeholders to gather the input you need to support the Regulatory Compliance Team's overall deliverables.
While the role sits within the Regulatory Compliance team, you will also have opportunities to support wider Compliance and Risk initiatives across the business as needed. You'll play a key role in coordinating regulator interactions and supporting critical projects, facilitating entry into new markets at a cutting-edge, dynamic, and high-growth fintech company.
We're approaching 'Risk' in Financial Services in a new way.
The Risk teams are at the forefront of GoCardless' expansion. We must ensure that GoCardless adopts, implements and maintains forward-thinking and appropriate processes and controls, often encountering new challenges or issues that require innovative solutions.
We're looking for someone with experience in a regulated financial institution who is passionate about moving to a fast-paced fintech. We'd love to hear from you if you:
Base salary range: £46,400 - £69,600
Base salary ranges are based on role, job level, location, and market data. Please note that whilst we strive to offer competitive compensation, our approach is to pay between the minimum and the mid-point (£46,400 - £58,000) of the pay range until performance can be assessed in role. Offers will take into account level of experience, interview assessment, budgets and parity between you and fellow employees at GoCardless doing similar work.
We're an organisation defined by our values; We start with why before we begin any project, to ensure it's aligned with our mission. We act with integrity, always. We care deeply about what we do and we know it's essential that we be humble whilst we do it. Working this way creates the GC magic- the reason we all love showing up to work.
