Airwallex · UK - London
About Airwallex Airwallex is the AI-native financial operating system for a real-time, intelligent economy. More than 676,000 businesses, including McLaren Racing, Qantas, SHEIN, and TikTok, use us, directly or through our platform partners, to run their financial operations or build and monetize financial products of their own. We started in Melbourne in 2015 to build the infrastructure global commerce runs on. We're the regulated backbone behind global payments: not by accident, but by design. A decade plus, 85+ licenses, and a financial infrastructure spanning North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. We're co-headquartered in San Francisco and Singapore, with more than 2,300 people across 27 offices. We hire builders with founder-level energy, people who move fast with good judgment, dig in with real curiosity, and make calls from first principles rather than waiting to be told what to do. Read our operating principles to see it in full. About the team The Financial Crimes Compliance team builds and oversees Airwallex’s global financial crime framework across AML/CTF, sanctions, risk assessment, FCC operations, monitoring and testing, and investigations. The team works closely with Product, Operations, Risk, Regulatory Legal & Compliance, and regional MLROs to make sure our controls are well designed, practical, and effective as Airwallex scales globally. What you'll do As Senior Manager, FCC Program Management, you’ll lead a multi-year effort to strengthen Airwallex’s global financial crime framework as we scale across products and regions. This is a new role with broad scope: you’ll shape the target operating model, improve processes and systems, and bring stronger discipline to FCC-wide change. You’ll be the central connector across senior leaders and cross-functional teams, making sure work is practical, well sequenced, and built to stick in BAU. This role is hybrid. Based in London. Responsibilities: Lead a global, multi-year FCC transformation across operating model, process, systems, testing, and controls. Build and drive the roadmap, with clear sequencing across priorities, dependencies, and risks. Use AI, automation, and data tools to improve FCC program tracking, reporting, and delivery across complex global workstreams. Run disciplined governance across working groups, SteerCos, RAID, and executive updates. Work hands-on with FCC and cross-functional leaders to turn complexity into clear plans, decisions, and action. Define success measures, evidence progress, and lead smooth transition into BAU. Who you are We’re looking for people who meet the minimum requirements for this role. The preferred qualifications are great to have, but are not mandatory. Minimum qualifications: 10 years leading large, multi-workstream transformation programs in financial services or fintech. Direct experience in financial crime program change across areas such as AML/CTF, sanctions, FCC operations, and monitoring and testing. Practical experience using AI, automation, and modern tools to improve program planning, reporting, and execution in complex environments. A track record of delivering multiple global or multi-region programs at more than one complex institution. Highly organized, hands-on, and strong at turning complexity into action. Strong executive presence, clear communication skills, and project management certification such as PMP or PRINCE2. Preferred qualifications: Experience in fintech, payments, or digital banking, ideally in fast-moving, global environments. Background in consulting, regulatory remediation, or large-scale risk and compliance change. Strong proficiency with program tools, dashboards, and executive reporting.
