We are looking for a highly-motivated and proactive Payments Compliance Specialist to assist with our global payments and lending licensing and examination program.

In this role, you will primarily focus on global licensing and compliance activities, with additional support for U.S. licensing as needed.

  • Manage payments and lending licenses across various international regulators and systems.
  • Support regulatory examinations and audits of Rippling’s global licenses.
  • Lead and monitor international license renewals, quarterly and annual reports, and jurisdiction- specific examinations.   
  • Partner with business stakeholders to improve processes and ensure that new and existing payment products comply with policies and applicable global laws and regulations.
  • Continually identify opportunities for efficiencies while escalating any control deficiencies.
  • Collaborate with U.S.-based licensing team members to ensure consistency in processes and cross-functional visibility.

What you will need:

  • 3+ years of experience in compliance, regulatory, or paralegal roles for a law firm, financial institution, or tech company (experience in payments, e-money, lending, and global financial regulatory compliance is a plus).
  • Entrepreneurial mindset (flexible, self-starting and hard-working) in generating new and innovative solutions to build out the Legal & Compliance program.
  • Demonstrated solution-oriented business and compliance judgment.
  • Exceptional attention to detail.
  • Strong project management and organisational skills.
  • Excellent communicator both internally and externally, with ability to break down complex regulatory requirements into easy-to-understand and practical advice.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Familiarity with international licensing regimes and regulatory frameworks (e.g., FCA, Central Bank of Ireland, AUSTRAC, MAS, FINTRAC) is a plus.
  • Familiarity with the NMLS system is a plus.
