👋 About Us NALA is building Payments for the Next Billion. Faster, smarter, and fairer transfers for everyone. Since 2022, we've grown our business 120x, grown the team from 9 to 150+, raised $50M+ from top-tier investors , and were named to the Forbes Fintech 50 in 2025. We operate two core products: NALA , our consumer app making cross-border payments cheaper, faster and more reliable for the global diaspora. Allowing users to send money from the UK, US and EU to Africa and Asia. Rafiki , our B2B payments infrastructure, is powering global payments. Our team includes alumni from Wise, Stripe, Monzo, Revolut, and CashApp — operators who’ve scaled world-class products. We act with urgency, think deeply, and put our customers first always. At NALA, this isn’t just a job. It’s ownership, impact, and the chance to change global payments forever. Join us in building [ Payments for the Next Billion ]( https://www.nala.com/blog/nalas-updated-mission#:~:text=When I started building NALA,are more urgent than ever.) . 🙌 Your Mission Your mission is to build and lead a world-class compliance and risk function that enables NALA to scale safely across consumer and B2B payments. You will protect our customers, licences and reputation while helping the business move at the pace that being NALA requires. Your regulatory leadership is focused on our Western licensed markets - the UK, EU, US, Canada and Australia - with our Africa and emerging-markets footprint folded into your remit over time. This spans both our consumer app and the infrastructure powering some of the world's largest payments companies. Compliance at NALA is not a blocker function. It is the function that decides which corridors we open, which products we launch, which acquisitions we close, and which regulators we earn the trust of. Done well, it is our most defensible competitive advantage. This role is both the guardian of NALA's licence to operate and a growth partner that helps us find compliant ways to put innovative financial products in front of customers in frontier markets.
