About the role

SumUp is seeking a Global KYC Manager to lead our worldwide AML program, focusing on PEP and sanctions screening and customer risk scoring across markets. You will drive KYC strategy, remediation, and regulatory alignment with product and onboarding teams. You'll partner with regulators and senior leadership to balance growth with compliance, shaping scalable processes for millions of merchants worldwide and maintaining a strong risk posture in a fast-moving fintech environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
