ABOUT THE ROLE

Trustly is looking for a motivated and experienced regulatory compliance professional to support the development and day-to-day running of SlimPay’s regulatory compliance programme in Paris. SlimPay operates as a licensed payment institution providing account-to-account and recurring payment services across Europe, which places us squarely within a fast-moving and heavily regulated industry. This role is responsible for helping SlimPay hold the right licences, meet its regulatory obligations in every market where it operates, and move efficiently into new markets as they open.

• Support the CCO in executing SlimPay’s regulatory compliance strategy

• Help obtain and maintain the licences and authorisations required to support the business
