Head of Compliance

Join Swan, a dynamic fintech company, as the Head of Compliance. In this role, you will oversee the company's regulatory obligations and maintain an effective compliance framework. You will lead a high-performing team of compliance professionals, maintain and evolve the regulatory compliance framework, and act as the primary interface with regulatory authorities. You will also advise product and commercial teams on regulatory feasibility, track regulatory change, and conduct compliance training for staff. This is an exciting opportunity to make a significant impact in a fast-growing company.

• Diriger la fonction de conformité, y compris les responsables de la lutte contre le blanchiment d'argent (AMLRO) et les agents réglementaires.
• Maintenir et faire évoluer le cadre de conformité réglementaire, en veillant à une interprétation cohérente des politiques AML/CFT.
• Gérer les relations réglementaires et les rapports, agir en tant qu'interface principale avec l'ACPR et les autorités compétentes locales.

**You’re a great match if:**

• You have hands-on experience as an AMLRO / compliance role (or equivalent) in a regulated financial institution - ideally an EMI or PI - and a strong command of the French regulatory framework (ACPR, AML/CFT directives, PSD2, MFC). Knowledge of another European jurisdiction is a plus.
• You've built and led a compliance team, and you know how to develop people while keeping standards high.
• You're comfortable sitting at the intersection of compliance and business - you've worked closely with Product or Sales teams, and you can say no while still moving things forward.
• You thrive in environments where the rules are still being written: you're as good at building frameworks from scratch as you are at maintaining them.
• You communicate with clarity and conviction - in French and in English - whether you're in front of a regulator, a board, or a product team.
• Our ideal teammate: Empathetic. Skilled. Frank. We love to challenge each other, and we leave our egos at the door.

It’s okay if you don’t tick all the boxes — don’t let imposter syndrome prevent you from applying! 🙌
