You’ll also manage and strengthen the teams’ relationships with regulators by being the Regulator’s point of contact, keeping everybody informed and protecting our most valuable asset – our customers.
Your mission:
- Improve the compliance program in line with our mission to be instant, convenient, transparent and eventually free.
- Maintain our regulatory licence for Indonesia: (i) regulatory reporting and filing, (ii) regulatory liaison and (iii) leading our audits.
- Build trust with our regulator: manage and coordinate meaningful reporting internally and externally, respond to information requests, and proactively communicate product changes and notifiable events.
- Maintain compliance frameworks, policies and documentation and lead in audits.

- Theory. You are an expert in cross-border payments compliance and may have worked, or work directly with the Bank Indonesia in various engagements.
- Practice. You have over 8 years demonstrable experience designing and challenging processes, ideally across multiple products. You have thought deeply about the Wise mission and how it intersects with compliance.
- Passion. You get a kick out of improving current practices and processes and can apply different compliance strategies to develop multiple compliance frameworks.
