Job description

Founders today are building global companies from day one — but the systems that manage their money were built for a different era. Aspire exists to change that!

We’re building the financial operating system for global founders, bringing banking, software, and automation into a single platform so businesses can move faster across borders and stay focused on building.

Aspire is built by people who think from first principles, care deeply about solving hard problems, and take real ownership of their work. Our team brings global experience from leading fintech and technology companies, and many of us are former founders and operators who understand what it takes to build thoughtfully, make trade-offs, and deliver at scale in a global environment.

Backed by leading global investors including Y Combinator, Peak XV, and Lightspeed, Aspire has been trusted by more than 50,000 startups and growing businesses worldwide to manage their finances since 2018. Together with partners like J.P. Morgan, Visa, and Wise, we’re building for the next generation of global companies.

About the team

The Periodic Review team sits within Aspire’s Financial Crime & Compliance function and reviews existing customer accounts to keep them compliant with AML/CFT regulations and internal risk policies. Reviews cover customer profiles, transactional activity, source of funds, ownership structures and documentation. The team works closely with KYC, Transaction Monitoring, Fraud, Compliance Advisory and Business teams. You’ll report to the PR Lead/Manager and be paired with a senior analyst as your buddy.

About the role

As Aspire scales across Southeast Asia, our Periodic Review team needs strong research support to keep reviews accurate and on time. This role is for curious, sharp graduates who want to learn how financial crime compliance works in a fast-growing fintech. You’ll dig into real businesses, piece together what they do and who is behind them, and help analysts make sound risk decisions.

What you’ll own

• Research customer businesses using public sources: company websites, registries, news and adverse media
• Gather and organise information on ownership, business activity and source of funds to support analyst reviews
• Flag inconsistencies between what a customer told us, their documents and what you find online
• Maintain trackers and case data accurately in Google Sheets, Jira and HubSpot
• Write short, clear research summaries that analysts can rely on
• Suggest ways to make research faster or more consistent, such as checklists or templates
