The role

- Own data protection under GDPR and comparable laws, including records, data processing agreements and impact assessments.
- Lead vendor due diligence with issuers and keep policies, controls and evidence current.
- Work with engineering so compliance is built into the product, not added later.

- Eight or more years in compliance, risk or legal at a payments company, issuer, processor or regulator, including leading a team.
- Working knowledge of PSD2 strong customer authentication, card network rules and GDPR.
