Role Overview:

The Compliance department at OKX is responsible for the overall compliance culture at the company. We’re a team of risk-minded problem solvers who advise the business on the company’s regulatory obligations and the Compliance risk. We operate a global/local Compliance model, whereby subject matter experts within Central Compliance support local in-country Compliance Officers to ensure their programs are robust, consistent, and meet both local regulatory requirements and internal global standards.

The Enterprise Compliance Project Management Team Leader will spearhead enterprise-wide delivery of critical compliance initiatives, regulatory implementation programs, and remediation efforts. Reporting to the Head of Enterprise Compliance Enablement, this leader will partner with cross-functional teams—including Legal, Product, Engineering, and Risk—to ensure compliance requirements are seamlessly integrated into business processes and technology solutions. With a strong foundation in project governance and stakeholder engagement, the ideal candidate will drive efficient outcomes and foster a proactive, scalable compliance function across jurisdictions.

What You’ll Be Doing:

• Accelerate regulatory adoption through timely implementation of new compliance requirements and regulatory mandates across the organization.
• Strengthen program governance through establishing a centralized PMO structure with standardized methodologies, dashboards, and SLA-driven processes.
• Enable compliance-by-design by embedding compliance requirements early and deeply within relevant product development and deployment lifecycles.
• Optimize stakeholder coordination by streamlining collaboration between Compliance, Product, Engineering, and Operations to improve efficiency and reduce complexity.
• Increase transparency and accountability by providing consistent reporting and escalation mechanisms to leadership for enhanced visibility and oversight.

What We Look For In You:

• Lead end-to-end project management for compliance programs — such as KYC/CIP, AML, sanctions initiatives, privacy, control & issue management, training, and regulatory change rollout—with charter, scope, timeline, and KPI definitions.
• Support compliance stakeholders through engagement with relevant Product and Engineering teams, translating regulatory requirements into technical and operational implementation plans.
• Create and maintain project governance artifacts, including Gantt charts, RAID logs, action trackers, and status dashboards.
• Coordinate global deployments of compliance solutions and internal tooling, establishing workflows from requirements gathering through rollout and post-launch reviews.
• Drive operational readiness, including support for Go/No-Go evaluations, pre-launch testing, and post-implementation validations to ensure compliance effectiveness.
• Manage escalation of project risks, dependencies, and issues, engaging senior stakeholders and ensuring communication through clear bulletins and leadership reports.
• Partner with global and regional teams to harmonize best practices, identify cross-region gaps, and deliver consistent compliance project delivery.
• Regularly prepare executive-level status updates, dashboards, and briefing materials to inform leadership decision-making and demonstrate program progress.
• Develop standard templates, PMO playbooks, and knowledge assets to scale the function and enable continuous improvement across compliance projects.
• Mentor and guide project team members, driving program excellence and cultivating best-in-class cross-functional collaboration.

Nice-to-Have Requirements:

• PMP, PgMP, or other related certifications.
• Certified Regulatory Compliance Manager (CRCM), CAMS, or similar compliance certifications.
• Experience in the crypto, DeFi, or digital assets space, particularly with fast-scaling compliance needs.
• Previous experience managing large-scale remediation efforts or consent order implementations.
• Experience working with product and engineering teams on integrating compliance into technical workflows and system design.
• Understanding of data governance and privacy-related regulations, such as GDPR, CCPA, or regional equivalents.
• Exposure to regulatory exams, audits, or similar external stakeholder engagement processes.
