Vilnius, Vilnius, Lithuania Fuse Finance Full time

Fuse is on a mission to bring real time cross border payments to the Middle East and Asia, helping global businesses to access the region without changing their payment stack. We believe MENA presents one of the most exciting payment opportunities in the world today - as one of the most financially isolated but fastest growing markets globally, the region is evolving fast and Fuse is providing the infrastructure required to keep up.

To date we've raised over $8.6mn to help us radically change how money moves in and out of MENA, from some of the best investors including Northzone, Flourish, Raba, and Alter Global. With our head office in Dubai, we're trusted by payment companies and enterprise businesses all over the world to provide the crucial infrastructure for money movement in the region. Processing payments to contractors on Deel, hosts on Airbnb, sellers on Etsy, and many more global brands is just the beginning.

We're looking for people that love what they do and are passionate about making local payments accessible to brands all over the world.

The role

Compliance is at the heart of Fuse's success. We're seeking a Head of Compliance and Money Laundering Reporting Officer (MLRO) to lead our compliance efforts for our new Lithuania office. You'll shape our domestic compliance framework, tackle money laundering risks head-on, and keep us ahead in this fast-moving space.

Working directly for the Chief Compliance Officer, you will receive significant exposure to our Group Compliance and Financial Crime strategy. As a rapidly growing Fintech, your role may change from day to day and you'll need to be able to adapt to an evolving environment. As a result, we're looking for a forward thinking leader who can implement, use and oversee innovative technology to help the firm continue with its rapid growth and operate effectively at scale. 

Responsibilities include:

  • Define, build, and manage our domestic Compliance and AML programme, collaborating with our Group Financial Crime and Compliance teams to make it world-class. 
  • Set customer onboarding standards aligned with domestic regulations.
  • Oversee domestic suspicious activity reporting — both internal escalations and external filings to regulators.
  • Regulatory liaison with local authorities, including the Bank of Lithuania.
  • Support new product launches, ensuring we stay compliant.
  • Work with our Group compliance teams to recommend innovative solutions to streamline and automate compliance-related processes.

Requirements

Must have

  • 5+ years experience, ideally within a Fintech firm.
  • Financial Crime (AML/CTF and Sanctions) and Regulatory Compliance experience, covering a wide range of subjects such as KYB, CDD/EDD, Transaction Monitoring, Risk Assessments, and Reporting (SARs).
  • Knowledge of Lithuania payment services and financial crime regulations.
  • Knowledge and understanding of global anti-financial crime frameworks, regulatory recommendations, risk management good practice, and control arrangements in a financial organisation.
  • The ability to analyse data and compliance processes to draw conclusions and make recommendations.

Nice to have

  • Legal qualifications and experience
