Internal Auditor - Regulatory Compliance
Ready to get shit done?
At bunq, we’re not just building a bank, we’re building freedom. Our users choose bunq because it works for their lives, wherever they are. That only works if we stay compliant, resilient, and trustworthy, without ever making our users feel the weight of regulation. That’s where you come in.
As an Internal Auditor - Regulatory Compliance, your mission is simple (but not easy): make sure bunq’s compliance framework actually works. Not on paper—in reality. You’ll spot compliance risks early, challenge how these are managed, and help fix gaps before our users ever feel them.
Think like a user. Act like an auditor. Improve like an engineer. Ready? 🚀
Take ownership
As our Internal Auditor focusing on Regulatory Compliance risks, you’ll take ownership by:
- Running regulatory compliance audits and advisory reviews across banking regulations, data protection, AML/KYC, operational risk, and regulatory reporting.
- Identifying and helping fix gaps and root causes, not just symptoms. Your recommendations will be spot on, driven by in-depth Root Cause Analysis (like the 5-Whys).
- Turning insights into action, ensuring every recommendation is tangible, measurable, time-bound, and followed through to completion.
- Continuously monitoring corrective action plans and keeping stakeholders engaged.
- Evaluating AI usage in compliance areas and building your own AI agents.
- Protecting user trust, balancing strong regulatory compliance with efficiency and a great user experience.
This challenge is perfect for you if
- Compliance Audit Expertise: You have a strong knowledge of EU regulatory compliance frameworks, including banking regulations, AML/CFT, and data protection.
- User-First Mindset: You understand that compliance exists to protect users - not just regulators.
- Root Cause Thinking: You’re experienced with Root Cause Analysis, especially in higher-risk scenarios.
- AI Awareness: You’re familiar with AI oversight frameworks and can assess compliance and trust risks related to AI usage.
- Ownership: You challenge existing ways of working, introduce continuous improvements, and see corrective actions through to resolution.
- Clarity & Impact: You communicate clearly, prioritize effectively, and turn insights into concrete and tangible actions.
