  • Champion a hands-on, solution-oriented approach to problem-solving and operational excellence

Requirements of the role:

  • Minimum 10 years of direct experience working with MAS, preferably in payments, fintech, or financial services
  • Deep expertise in the Payment Services Act and Singapore’s regulatory landscape
  • Proven track record in AML/CFT compliance, including policy development and enforcement
  • Experience in the payments industry is essential; exposure to cryptocurrency or blockchain is highly advantageous
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to build and scale teams and systems from scratch
  • Exceptional communication and stakeholder management abilities
  • “Can-do” attitude with a passion for innovation, agility, and hands-on execution

What they can offer:

  • Opportunity to shape the future of finance in a high-growth, global environment
  • Direct impact on strategic decisions and regulatory positioning
  • Collaborative culture with visionary leadership and cutting-edge technology
  • Competitive compensation and benefits package
