About the Role

This role focuses on building a scalable, data-led, AI-enabled monitoring oversight framework in partnership with 1LOD teams, Product Compliance, Risk, Operations, and the Analytics team.

Responsibilities
- Lead the development of Wise’s North America regulatory monitoring oversight framework.
- Define standards for effective 1LOD-owned monitoring.
- Partner closely with Analytics and 1LOD teams to design recurring monitoring workflows, dashboards, alerts, exception reports, AI-assisted reviews, and analytics routines.
- Oversee monitoring coverage across key NorthAm regulatory obligations.
- Challenge whether 1LOD monitoring is appropriately designed, consistently executed, sufficiently documented, and responsive to emerging risks.
- Build or co-build interim monitoring workflows with Analytics.
- Translate regulatory obligations into practical monitoring indicators and oversight routines.
- Review monitoring outputs to identify themes, exceptions, control weaknesses, customer harm patterns, production issues, and emerging regulatory risks.
- Ensure monitoring exceptions are investigated, escalated, tracked, and remediated.
- Produce clear reporting for Compliance leadership, committees, board-level materials, and regulatory examination readiness.
- Help define how Wise uses AI and automation responsibly within compliance monitoring.
Requirements
- 7+ years of experience in compliance monitoring, compliance risk management, control oversight, audit analytics, operational risk, regulatory compliance, financial crimes monitoring, or related financial services roles.
- Strong understanding of US consumer protection and financial services regulations.
- Proven ability to build or enhance monitoring programs, oversight frameworks, KRI routines, dashboards, exception management processes, control monitoring, or compliance analytics.
- Strong analytics fluency.
- Experience partnering with technology, analytics, product, operations, or engineering teams.
