The posting

Ambition has no passport. That belief is why LemFi https://lemfi.com/en-gb/careers exists. We're the financial engine for people the world wasn't built to serve, the millions who move countries to build something better and find the financial system hasn't caught up with them yet. We started with remittances: the money people send home to the people they love. Now we run multi-currency accounts, Savings, eSIMs and Credit. Because staying connected to home and building somewhere new are not two separate things. They never were.

ABOUT THE ROLE

LemFi moves over $2B a month for 2M+ customers across 30+ countries. Canada is a core corridor, and the person in this seat is the most senior compliance voice in the country. You own the AML programme end to end, hold the FINTRAC relationship, and are the designated compliance officer on the Canada entity's books.

This is a fully remote role that reports to the Canada entity Board of Directors and the Global Head of Compliance. You will be the primary expert on the RPAA as it comes into force, manage banking and payments partner obligations, and represent LemFi with regulators and law enforcement. There is real scope here: you are building and maintaining something that matters, not inheriting a finished programme.

WHAT YOU'LL BUILD AND OWN

- Own and maintain the Canada AML compliance programme, keeping it aligned with LemFi's global AML policy, FINTRAC requirements, and provincial regulations

- Become LemFi's internal RPAA expert: develop the RPAA programme from the ground up and champion implementation across the business

- Hold the FINTRAC relationship directly, manage MSB registration renewals, and lead regulatory and independent AML audits in Canada

- Submit and oversee all regulatory filings: STRs, UARs, EFTOs, EFTIs, and any ad hoc reports required by regulators or banking partners

- Maintain and develop relationships with Canadian banking and payments partners, fulfilling partner obligations including periodic reports and cooperative filings

- Develop and maintain the regional AML risk assessment, identify key risk indicators, and brief the Board, CCO North America, and senior leadership on the programme's health

- Guide compliance staff on Canada-specific responsibilities and engage cross-functionally wherever the global compliance team needs your expertise

YOUR EXPERIENCE

- At least 3 years in a senior or management compliance role at a Canada-based fintech or financial institution

- Direct, hands-on experience with FINTRAC: regulatory communications, MSB registration, and licensing or registration renewals

- Deep working knowledge of Canadian federal AML obligations under PCMLTFA, including STR, UAR, and EFTO/EFTI reporting

- Familiarity with the RPAA and a clear view of what compliance with it requires in practice

- Experience leading or managing regulatory or independent AML audits, including preparing documentation and responding to examiner findings

- Track record of managing banking or payments partner relationships, including fulfilling partner-driven compliance obligations

- Strong written and verbal communication: you can translate complex regulatory requirements into clear policy, and brief a Board or regulator with equal confidence

NICE TO HAVE

- CAMS certification or an equivalent recognised AML qualification

- Experience operating within a multi-entity, multi-corridor compliance structure

- Exposure to cross-border payments or remittance-specific risk typologies

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.
