We are looking for a Sr. Manager of Compliance Operations to join our rapidly growing FinTech company. The Senior Manager of Compliance Operations in the US will be a results-oriented compliance professional who can lead a team of SMEs to sustainably implement compliance controls,  regulatory obligations, protect our company from financial crimes, and be able to thrive in a high growth tech startup environment.

Paxos is on a mission to enable the movement of any asset, any time, in a trustworthy way. Today’s financial infrastructure is archaic, expensive, inefficient and risky - supporting a system that leaves out more people than it lets in. So we’re rebuilding it. 

As a regulated blockchain infrastructure company, we use technology to tokenize, custody, trade, and settle assets for enterprise clients like PayPal, Novi, Bank of America, and Interactive Brokers. Paxos is a top-funded blockchain company, with more than $500 million in total funding from leading investors like OakHC/FT, Founders Fund, PayPal Ventures, and Declaration Partners. Together, we empower today’s financial leaders to build a more open, trusted economy. 

As a Sr. Manager of Compliance Operations, you’ll get to: 

• Oversee implementation of all operational objectives of the Compliance program, including transaction monitoring and investigations, client onboarding and customer due diligence, SAR writing, sanctions screening, etc.
• Scale the compliance operations team to support business growth in line with sustainable risk management and compliance support
• Manage and develop key metrics to determine the health of the compliance program 
• Oversee end-to-end investigations on a range of cases triggered from KYC/CDD, sanctions screening, transaction monitoring and blockchain analytics. 
• Use transactional and other data to identify trends and patterns associated with financial crime risks. 
• Effectively manage with business, operational teams and law enforcement throughout the client customer lifecycle to detect and mitigate financial crime risks. 

Your experience should include:

• 7+ years of financial crime compliance team management experience
• A fundamental understanding of AML, KYC and Sanctions regulations
• Experience overseeing multiple Compliance functions, including transaction monitoring, sanctions screening, client onboarding and KYC
• Strong writing capabilities where deliverables are to be reviewed by regulators, auditors and law enforcement
• Experience managing operational data sets including reporting KPIs/KRIs to leadership
• You are comfortable working in a fast-paced and tech-oriented environment within a global team setting
• You embody our culture and values.
