Full Job Description
About Abound We’re redefining consumer lending in the UK, and beyond. Using advanced AI and Open Banking data, we make fair, affordable personal finance available to more people. While traditional lenders rely almost entirely on credit scores, we look at the full financial picture - how much you spend, and what you can afford to repay to build a deeper, more accurate understanding of each customer's unique financial situation. And we've shown it works at scale. We’ve issued over £1.3bn in loans directly to customers while delivering market-leading credit performance - for every 10 defaults the industry expects, we see only 3. We also reached profitability just 2.5 years after launch. Backed by £2bn+ of funding from top-tier investors including Citi, GSR Ventures, and Deutsche Bank, we’re recognised as one of Europe’s fastest-growing fintechs (Sifted, CNBC). Now, we’re expanding into new markets and product lines - and we’re looking for ambitious people who want to learn fast, take ownership, and grow with us. We’re looking for a driven and commercially aware Compliance Officer to help support our next phase of growth while ensuring we continue to deliver good outcomes for our customers. This is a broad and hands-on role where you’ll gain real exposure across the business, working closely with senior stakeholders and contributing directly to how we manage risk, compliance, and regulatory change. What you’ll be doing - Own and deliver compliance monitoring – identify emerging risks, assess customer impact, and drive practical, proportionate remediation - Provide clear, actionable reporting – draft high-quality updates for senior management and the Board - Stay ahead of regulation – track FCA developments and translate them into clear, business-relevant actions - Maintain and strengthen our control environment – support the review and continuous improvement of policies and frameworks - Partner across the business – build strong relationships and act as a trusted adviso
