The posting

Millions of people across Europe are looking for better ways to build long-term wealth. We're building the platform that makes it possible. Currently we are on a journey to obtain a banking licence from the European Central Bank (ECB) that will open new possibilities and help us build even more trust, which is key to long-term wealth building.

As our Head of Risk, you will lead and scale the risk function to meet the demands of a business in the process of becoming a credit institution. You will report directly to the Management Board member responsible for risk function oversight and will own the day-to-day operation and continuous development of the risk function as Mintos makes that transition.

What you'll do:

  • Lead the risk team, ensuring the function operates in full compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.
  • Lead the transition of Mintos' risk management framework to meet banking supervision requirements, including development of ICAAP and ILAAP, maintaining the risk appetite framework, and preparing associated governance documentation ahead of and following the banking licence.
  • Combine strategic oversight with hands-on involvement in the function's key initiatives.
  • Continuously enhance the efficiency of the function by leveraging technology, automation, and AI-driven tools.
  • Ensure smooth, transparent, and proactive collaboration with the regulator.
  • Act as a trusted partner to the management board and supervisory board, aligning risk strategy with broader business objectives.
  • Foster a strong culture of ownership, accountability, and integrity across the risk management team and wider organisation.

Your professional skills and background:

  • 5+ years of experience in risk management within a bank or regulated financial institution with demonstrated seniority and across several risk areas, including credit risk, market risk, interest rate risk, and liquidity risk.
  • Deep knowledge of the prudential banking framework, including CRR/CRD, ICAAP/ILAAP.
  • Strong strategic mindset combined with a hands-on leadership style.
  • Experience working with regulators and auditors.
  • Track record of building and developing high-performing teams.
  • Excellent English; Latvian language skills are a strong advantage.

What we offer:

💸Competitive salary and stock options. The compensation package for this position begins from €6000 per month. You’ll also receive equity so you can share in the value you help create.

🤹Flexibility that fits real life. We understand how important it is to stay connected with colleagues while having the opportunities to work remotely. Come to the office to collaborate and be productive side by side, work from home when you need to, and spend up to three months each year working from another country.

🌴Generous vacation policy. Rest and recovery are essential. We don’t limit vacation to the minimum required by law. Take the time you need to recharge and come back refreshed.

🧠Learning and growth. An annual €1,200 learning budget to support your professional and personal growth. Whether you want to explore something new or deepen your expertise, we’ll support you along the way. ☕Very well-equipped office. Comfortable environment matters. When in the office, enjoy the parking, showers, kitchen with snacks and drinks, massage chair, nap room and others.

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.
