London, United Kingdom Payment Systems Regulator Full time

About the PSR
- How payments work affects the society we live in; the challenges faced by the vulnerable; how likely we are to fall victim to fraud; and how easily we can manage our money. Payments underpin our economy.
- Behind these payments are several important payment systems. We rely on these systems to support markets, facilitate competition and drive innovation. This helps to deliver new products, find new ways to protect people from harm, and deliver services that give people and businesses more choice and control about how to pay and be paid.
- We need the technology, the rules governing the use of these systems and the markets they support to all work well. This is where the PSR plays an important role - we are the economic regulator of, and competition authority for, those systems. We protect people and businesses and promote competition and innovation in these systems and the markets that they support.- Ensure users have continued access to the payment services they rely on and support a choice of payment options-
- Ensure users are sufficiently protected when using the UK's payment systems-
- Promote competition between UK payment systems and the markets supported by them; protecting users where that competition is not sufficient-
- Act to ensure the interbank systems provide the infrastructure, rules and incentives that foster innovation and competition in payments- Our work is high-profile and fast-moving, within a dynamic environment. The work that you’ll be involved in every day will be about helping us to deliver our strategy, helping us to be the regulator we want to be and helping the sector to deliver outcomes that protect the interests of people and businesses, and to promote competition and innovation in payments.
- Our strategy sets out the need for us to continue adjusting our approach to ensure our work is directed where it will have the greatest impact.
- We’re ambitious about the future and looking for people who can help us to achieve our strategic priorities. The PSR is an independent economic regulator led by Managing Director, Chris Hemsley. We are directly accountable to Parliament and funded by the payments industry._
