London, Greater London, United Kingdom Taylor Root Full time

About the Role

This is a unique opportunity to join a successful fintech scale-up as its General Counsel, leading the legal and regulatory function and managing a small but strong legal team. The company is on a continued growth journey, with a talented leadership team, collaborative culture, and a comprehensive package, including a strong equity incentive scheme, on offer.

About the Company

Founded over 10 years ago, driven by a focus on innovation, this fintech business has gone from strength to strength, growing in the UK and internationally to establish itself as a market leader. Fuelled by significant funding and with ambitious expansion plans, the company is in great shape to welcome a new General Counsel to lead its legal and regulatory function.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide forward-thinking legal guidance and strategic advice on a wide range of legal and regulatory matters.
  • Manage the company's legal department, including hiring, training, and supervising in-house legal staff and external counsel.
  • Ensure compliance with all relevant laws, regulations, and industry standards, including those related to financial services, data privacy, consumer protection, and corporate governance.
  • Enable the business to self-serve through legal and regulatory training.
  • Serve as the primary liaison with regulatory bodies, responding to inquiries and coordinating audits and examinations.
  • Support corporate transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, and financing activities, by conducting due diligence and ensuring legal compliance.

About You

The successful candidate will most likely come from a FCA background, be highly solutions-driven, and have solid decision-making capabilities. Ideally, you will have:

  • Training from a magic, silver circle, or top-tier US law firm.
  • 10+ years of legal experience.
  • In-House experience in the fintech or financial services industry in the start-up or scale-up phase.
  • Strong knowledge of financial regulations and experience with UK regulatory bodies such as the FCA, PRA, and ICO (desired but not essential).
  • Proven experience managing a legal team and working with senior executives and board members.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and manage multiple priorities effectively.
