Lendable

1d • Hybrid

About The Position

We are looking for an experienced, high-energy, proactive compliance leader to join our growing team. This is a pivotal role for a self-starter who views regulatory compliance not as a "check-the-box" function, but as a strategic competitive advantage.
The ideal candidate is a "Product-First" compliance professional who moves beyond identifying problems to building automated solutions. You will partner with product and engineering teams to provide sound regulatory guidance across consumer lending products (cards, personal loans, emerging products), while actively leveraging AI and automation to scale our oversight and efficiency.

Requirements

• Experience: 5–10 years in consumer finance compliance or legal. A background in a fast-paced Fintech environment or experience with bank partnerships is essential.
• Regulatory Mastery: Deep functional knowledge of FCRA, TILA, ECOA, UDAAP, AML/BSA, MLA/SCRA, TCPA, FDCPA, and state consumer finance regulations.
• Tech-Forward Mindset: You are an early adopter of AI tools (LLMs for research, automated workflow tools) and understand how to apply them to streamline regulatory tasks.
• Leadership Trajectory: A proven track record of taking initiative, rising through the ranks, and leading projects from conception to completion.
• The "Fintech Mindset": You thrive in ambiguity and are excited by the intersection of finance, technology, and law.

Responsibilities

• Identify opportunities to integrate AI and automated monitoring into our compliance framework to replace manual testing and reduce friction.
• Move beyond identifying "red flags" to designing "green lights." You will help build processes that ensure compliance while maintaining a high-velocity user experience.
• Collaborate with engineering to implement "compliance-as-code" where possible, ensuring disclosures and logic are programmatically sound.
• Manage relationships with bank partners, utilizing technology to provide transparent, data-driven reporting.
• Advise product teams on consumer finance regulations affecting credit cards, personal loans and other emerging products in the fintech space, such as marketing, servicing, and credit reporting.
• Guide the business in the bank partnership context, including advising on true-lender issues.

Benefits

• Best-in-class compensation, including equity.
• You can work from home every Monday and Friday if you wish - on the other days, those based in the UK come together IRL at our Shoreditch office in London to be together, build and exchange ideas.
• Enjoy a fully stocked kitchen with everything you need to whip up breakfast, lunch, snacks, and drinks in the office every Tuesday-Thursday.
• We care for our Lendies’ well-being both physically and mentally, so we offer coverage when it comes to private health insurance
• We're an equal-opportunity employer and are looking to make Lendable the most inclusive and open workspace in London
