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.
- 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. We work closely with other regulators involved in this sector, notably the Financial Conduct Authority, the Bank of England and the Competition and Markets Authority. Operationally we are an independent subsidiary of the Financial Conduct Authority.
- Why join the PSR?
- There are so many reasons why the PSR is a great place to work In addition to working at the cutting edge of regulation and making a real difference to people’s lives, we have an excellent agile working environment, a friendly team with an important role to play. So, if you are motivated by making a difference to how we all make payments, then we are for you.
- In addition, we offer a wide variety of learning and development opportunities here at the PSR as well as access to the FCA Academy which has a wealth of resource available to us.
- We’re committed to building and sustaining a diverse and inclusive workplace in order to represent the people and organisations that we serve. We recognise the diverse community in which we operate, and we encourage applicants irrespective of ethnicity, disability, gender, gender reassignment, pregnancy and maternity, religion or belief, marriage or civil partnership, sexual orientation, social background or age.
