Description
We are looking for a commercially minded Fintech Risk & Compliance Manager to strengthen the governance framework of a technology-driven financial services environment in Estonia.
This role is suited to a professional who understands that effective compliance is more than policy documentation. You will help embed risk management, regulatory controls, monitoring, and operational discipline directly into fintech products and business processes.
What You Will Do
- Develop and maintain enterprise-level fintech risk and compliance frameworks.
- Assess regulatory and operational risks associated with new products, markets, partnerships, and payment services.
- Coordinate AML, KYC, transaction monitoring, customer due diligence, and financial crime control activities.
- Conduct risk assessments across products, technology platforms, vendors, and operational processes.
- Establish effective compliance monitoring and reporting procedures.
- Work with product and engineering teams to ensure regulatory requirements are translated into practical system controls.
- Support internal audits, regulatory examinations, and compliance reviews.
- Monitor changes in European and Estonian financial-services requirements and assess their operational impact.
- Develop management reports covering risk exposure, control effectiveness, incidents, and remediation.
- Lead investigations into compliance breaches and coordinate corrective actions.
- Promote a strong risk-aware culture across business and technology teams.
What You Bring
- 6+ years of experience in financial services, fintech, banking, compliance, risk, or financial crime prevention.
- Strong understanding of AML/KYC and transaction-monitoring frameworks.
- Experience working with regulated financial products or payment environments.
- Ability to interpret regulatory requirements and convert them into operational controls.
- Strong analytical and investigative capabilities.
- Experience managing compliance projects and cross-functional stakeholders.
- Excellent written and verbal communication.
- Professional judgment and the ability to handle sensitive business matters with discretion.
Your Working Approach
You are structured, analytical, commercially aware, and comfortable challenging existing processes when they create unnecessary risk. You can communicate regulatory requirements clearly to both executives and technical teams.
Why Join
The position offers the opportunity to help shape a modern fintech control environment where risk, technology, customer experience, and business growth operate together rather than as separate functions.
You will have meaningful influence over how financial products are governed, monitored, and continuously improved within an internationally oriented Estonian fintech environment.
