  • Monitor regulatory developments, circulars, master directions, and supervisory expectations, translating them into actionable business requirements.
  • Establish and maintain a comprehensive regulatory compliance framework, including policies, controls, monitoring programs, and governance structures.
  • Ensure timely and accurate submission of regulatory returns, filings, certifications, and compliance reports.
  • Build, develop, and lead the compliance function, including hiring, mentoring, and managing the compliance team.
  • Implement scalable compliance processes, automation, and technology-enabled monitoring capabilities.
  • Partner with Product, Business, Credit, Risk, Operations, Technology, and Customer Experience teams to integrate compliance into product development and business operations.
  • Conduct regulatory assessments for new products, lending programs, partnerships, customer journeys, and process changes.
  • Evaluate compliance requirements relating to customer onboarding, collections, outsourcing, third-party arrangements, and digital lending platforms.
  • Lead RBI inspections, regulatory audits, thematic examinations, and supervisory reviews, ensuring effective preparation and timely resolution of observations.
  • Coordinate internal audits, compliance assessments, control testing, and remediation programs.
  • Establish a structured regulatory change management process to ensure policies, procedures, and controls remain aligned with evolving requirements.
  • Provide regular compliance updates, risk assessments, and regulatory insights to senior leadership and Board-level committees.
  • Build credible relationships with regulators, industry bodies, and external stakeholders.
  • Advise business leaders on regulatory risks and provide practical solutions that balance compliance obligations with commercial objectives.

What Makes You a Great Fit

  • 10+ years of experience in regulatory compliance within NBFCs, fintechs, banks, digital lending platforms, or other regulated financial institutions.
  • Strong hands-on experience with RBI-regulated lending businesses.
  • Proven experience managing RBI inspections, regulatory audits, supervisory reviews, and regulator interactions.
  • Demonstrated ability to establish and scale compliance frameworks in a growing organisation.
  • Strong understanding of RBI regulations for NBFCs, including Scale Based Regulation.
  • Expertise in Digital Lending Guidelines, Fair Practices Code, Outsourcing Guidelines, and KYC/AML/CFT requirements.
  • Familiarity with co-lending arrangements, Lending Service Provider (LSP) and Digital Lending App (DLA) models, grievance redressal, and the Ombudsman framework.
  • Understanding of credit information reporting, regulatory filings, IT governance, cybersecurity, and data privacy, including the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act.
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to build teams, establish processes, and drive organisational accountability.
  • Commercially pragmatic approach, with the ability to provide clear regulatory guidance that supports business growth.
  • Strong judgement, integrity, independence, and the confidence to challenge senior stakeholders when necessary.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills, including the ability to engage with regulators, the Board, and cross-functional teams.
