About the role
About Aspora People on the move deserve a bank that moves with them. Since 2022, Aspora has been building a borderless financial operating system that makes money as mobile and transparent as its users. Backed by influential venture capitalists like Sequoia Capital, Greylock Partners, Hummingbird Ventures, Y Combinator & Global Founders Capital. We're a team of 150+ across India, the UK, the UAE, EU and the US, working with extreme ownership, radical candour, and an obsession with customer impact. We celebrate builders who question assumptions, ship fast, and turn regulatory complexity into elegant solutions. If you’re driven to redefine what global banking can be, we’d love to build the future with you.
About
the Role This role exists to own Aspora's full compliance mandate for its Lithuanian EMI licence. Compliance at Aspora is not a back-office function. It is a core part of how we operate, expand, and earn trust. You will be the primary face to the Bank of Lithuania and the internal authority on what the business can and cannot do. That means setting the framework, testing the controls, and advising directly on new products and partnerships before they launch. You will work closely with the CEO, Management Board, and MLRO.
What You'll Own Own the full compliance mandate for Aspora's Lithuanian EMI: monitoring adherence to EMD2, PSD2, AML/CTF, sanctions, and consumer protection
requirements end-to-end. Lead the supervisory relationship with the Bank of Lithuania: examinations, information requests, and all regulatory correspondence. Build and maintain the internal compliance framework: policies, procedures, controls, and testing across governance, consumer protection, and conduct of business. Drive risk-based compliance reviews and thematic checks to stress-test controls including AML/CTF, sanctions, and outsourcing arrangements, and lead remediation where gaps surface. Advise the CEO, Management Board, and business units on compliance implications of new products, partnerships, and market expansion decisions. Build compliance culture across the organisation through training programmes, incident investigation, and board-level reporting on breaches and remediation.
