A broad role, this position has two major functions – firstly the regional management of compliance activities across Europe, Middle East and Africa and secondly, the application of compliance principles to support growth across the region. The central feature of this role will involve oversight of regulatory compliance and AML and CTF programmes across the EMEA region and fostering a strong culture of regulatory compliance, AML and CTF awareness. The first major responsibility is to maintain the risk assessments across all programmes. They will ensure compliance at all times with all applicable laws and regulations.

This hire will bring an acute prioritisation to the role - the UK/Europe is the most mature part of the region, Africa, with the pre-approval of the South African Reserve Bank, is growing and the Middle East is unexplored; the priority will be to build this out in continental European, African and Middle Eastern markets. Given WorldRemit’s ambitious growth plan to roll out across many of these countries will necessitate applying for licences, there will be an advisory component to this position. This may include flying out to country to represent WorldRemit to central banks and regulatory bodies and maintaining an excellent, ongoing dialogue with them. Additionally a portion of their time will be dedicated to conducting and overseeing correspondent reviews.
They will inherit and manage a team of ten and by building it out, create capability which frees them to focus on the more strategic and advisory tasks.

They will correspondingly build up strong working relationships with the business continuity team. This hire will strike the right balance between fulfilling all the professional duties of a control function and serving as a counterbalance to business development team, enabling WorldRemit to grow in a sustainable way. Based in London HQ, the role will involve travel across Europe and the Middle East.
Summary of required experience & attributes • Compliance Subject Matter Expertise: Will be steeped in AML/KYC/ /CTF/Consumer Protection best practice and know how to leverage this to enable sustainable growth. Will also understand the compliance governing the consumer finance and foreign exchange industries. Will know how to implement best compliance, audit, and risk assessment practices and resolve outstanding issues. Will be completely familiar with the “three lines of defence” compliance model, as well as conducting correspondent reviews. Familiar with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Payment Services Directive (PSD2). Able to share and co-create best practice with the broader global compliance team. They may have a recognised compliance diploma.
• Broad Geographical Knowledge: Whilst immediately knowledgeable and experienced in the relevant markets, will have broad knowledge of the international compliance landscape. Has the intellectual agility to rapidly learn new laws and regulations in order to ensure compliance in all relevant territories. Will have a holistic understanding of global and regional compliance initiatives.

Will be able to interact and create presentations for a wide variety of stakeholders internally (including but not limited to members of the product, legal, finance and customer service teams) and externally.
• Cultural Fit: WorldRemit is deeply proud of its goal to disrupt an incumbent industry, create commercial success and fulfil a broader social mission. The company is known for its low ego culture, and its high intellectual bar.
