The posting

Why Join dLocal? dLocal is the financial infrastructure powering global commerce in the world's fastest-growing markets. The biggest companies in the world trust us to unlock growth in 60+ countries across emerging markets—moving money where others see complexity. We don't just process payments; we are architects of payment ecosystems and partners in our customers' expansion. You'll work alongside 1,300+ teammates from 40+ nationalities and tackle global challenges from day one.

What will I be doing?

  • Support license and registration applications across Middle East and North Africa jurisdictions (strategy, documentation, regulatory interactions) through to approval.
  • Maintain and update the licensing tracker of the application status, timelines.
  • Coordinate with external regulatory advisors and local law firms on license applications, structural questions, and regulatory perimeter assessments.
  • Contribute to dLocal's long-term licensing strategy for the region.
  • Maintain the regulatory framework by country and entity for day-to-day use: what licenses and permissions exist, what activities they authorise, applicable conditions, limits, and reporting obligations.
  • Ensure quality, accuracy, and timely delivery of regulatory reports and compliance submissions for each licensed MENA entity.
  • Identify and assess how regulatory requirements apply to new business needs (new flows, use cases, products), and design compliant operating models.
  • Provide expert advice to internal teams.
  • Support merchant and partner onboarding from a regulatory standpoint.
  • Monitor regulatory developments and trends across the region.

What skills do I need?

  • Advanced degree in Law, Compliance, Finance, or a comparable field.
  • 5+ years of experience in a regulatory affairs, compliance, or legal advisory role — ideally within a fintech, payments company, financial institution, or law firm operating in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
  • Deep knowledge of financial services regulation across MENA markets, including payment institution licensing frameworks, AML/CFT requirements, and data privacy obligations.
  • Fluency in Arabic and English (written and spoken) is mandatory. French is a plus for Morocco-based candidates.
  • Proven ability to operate across both licensing (forward-looking, strategic) and compliance/assurance (operational, day-to-day) functions.
  • Experience managing regulatory relationships and submissions directly with MENA financial authorities.
  • Highly analytical, structured, and detail-oriented — able to translate complex regulatory requirements into practical business guidance.
  • Autonomous and hands-on, comfortable working in a fast-paced, international environment with multiple workstreams in parallel.
  • Professional and collaborative, with strong stakeholder management skills across diverse internal teams.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
