About the role:

A high-growth, technology-led fintech is looking to hire a Compliance Lead to build and strengthen its regulatory compliance framework as the business enters its next phase of scale.

The company has built significant scale in digital lending and is now evolving into a broader digital financial-services platform, with multiple products across credit, financial wellness, protection and other consumer financial solutions.

This is a high-ownership leadership opportunity for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of Regulation, Business, Product and Technology.

Role Mandate:

The Compliance Lead will be responsible for driving the organisation's overall compliance agenda, with a strong focus on digital lending, RBI regulations, partner governance, customer protection and new product launches.

Key responsibilities:

- Own and strengthen the enterprise compliance framework across digital lending and other financial products.

- Ensure adherence to RBI regulations, Digital Lending Guidelines, KYC/AML, Fair Practices Code, customer protection and grievance redressal requirements.

- Partner closely with Business, Product, Technology, Risk, Credit and Operations to embed compliance into products and processes.

- Manage compliance governance across lending partners, LSP arrangements, collection partners and other ecosystem stakeholders.

- Review new products, processes and partnerships from a regulatory and compliance perspective.

- Drive regulatory audits, compliance reviews, remediation and reporting.

- Build strong frameworks around data privacy, customer consent, disclosures and responsible lending.

- Stay ahead of regulatory developments and translate them into actionable business and product requirements.

- Build a proactive, business-enabling compliance culture across the organisation.

Ideal Profile:

- 8 - 15+ years of experience in Compliance, Regulatory Affairs or related roles.

- Strong experience across Digital Lending, Fintech, NBFC or Consumer Lending.

- Deep understanding of RBI regulations and digital lending ecosystem.

- Experience working with multiple lending partners or regulated entities will be highly relevant.

- Strong exposure to KYC/AML, customer protection, collections, grievance redressal and regulatory audits.

- Ability to work closely with Product and Technology teams in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.

- Strong stakeholder management and the ability to balance regulatory rigour with business growth.

Why this opportunity?:

This is not a traditional compliance role. The mandate offers an opportunity to build, influence and shape the compliance function of a scaled fintech that is expanding beyond its core lending business.

For a senior compliance professional looking to move from a primarily advisory or control role into a high-impact business-facing leadership position, this could be an exciting next step.
