More about
our mission
and
what we offer
.
Your Mission
Wise has already pioneered new ways for people to transfer money across borders. Our customers can now manage their hard-earned money with the world’s first platform to offer true multi-currency banking.
As we expand our reach across the EU and UK, we need to ensure that every new licence, branch, and product launch is born scalable and compliant. Your mission is to be the "Operational Launch" architect. You’ll ensure that as we grow, our product doesn't just "exist" in a new market - it feels 100% domestic, follows local regulations, and is built to scale without adding operational debt.
The Role
This is a high-impact role at the intersection of Product, Operations, and Compliance. You aren't just launching a feature; you are building the operational engine behind it.
You will act as the central node, orchestrating primarily between our Global Operations teams (who keep the engine running), Product squads (who want to move fast), and our 2nd-line Risk and FinCrime teams (who ensure we stay safe). You will also partner with the wider Expansion team to align on regional strategy. Your job is to ensure that by the time we hit "go," the operational processes are resilient, the teams are trained, and the product is ready to scale. You’ll be the bridge that translates complex regulatory requirements into smooth operational processes.
