Job Description
ABOUT WISE PLATFORM
Wise Platform takes all of the world-class payments products Wise has built over the last 15 years and enables hundreds of millions of consumers and businesses to access them in the places where they already move and manage their money - with banks and large tech platforms.
Today, we’re already powering payments for some of the world’s top neobanks like Monzo, N26, and Nubank, alongside a growing list of leading global banks such as UniCredit, Morgan Stanley, and Standard Chartered, to name a few. In the tech platforms space, we’re powering payments for partners across a whole range of industry verticals and use cases. Whether that’s leading marketplaces like Google, Agoda, or Upwork, workforce management tools like Deel, or investment platforms like Interactive Brokers - we’re bringing the power, simplicity, and transparency of Wise to even more people and places.
And, we’re just getting started! Wise Platform is one of the newest and fastest growing products at Wise. We’re a global and highly cross-functional team, spearheading Wise next phase of growth!
THE ROLE
We're looking for a Senior Analyst to spearhead the way we identify, manage and mitigate risks in Wise Platform. As we continue to scale our products to more enterprise partners, we’re continuously investing in new controls, processes, and capabilities to keep our enterprise products safe, compliant, and fit-for-the-future. This role will be focused on proactively identifying compliance gaps, creating transaction monitoring rules to identify suspicious activity, and building out reporting that demonstrates our effectiveness in preventing financial crime. To achieve this, you will partner with Product, Product Compliance, Fincrime (Fraud, Screening, and AML), KYC, and Business Operations teams to proactively identify and mitigate new and emerging risks.

- Contribute to our Financial Crime reporting and analysis in Wise Platform, defining and maintaining Fincrime KRIs, performing deep dives, and making recommendations to enable us to effectively monitor and mitigate partner risks.

- Proficient with SQL and familiar with data pipeline management tools such as Snowflake, dbt, Git, Airflow, Python, and Lightdash. Comfortable owning analytics from data transformation through to delivering actionable insights.
