This role will give you the opportunity to:

  1. Develop an in-depth knowledge of Wise’s business and get to know many teams across the company as you liaise with them to help them understand the regulatory framework and bring together the information that our regulators need.
  2. Help keep compliance right at the heart of our business by helping the team understand and comply with applicable regulatory requirements.
  3. Implement innovative and creative solutions with a technology and customer focused approach to help us achieve the Wise Mission.

A bit about you:

  1. Our ideal candidate will have a regulatory advisory background, great communication and organisational skills, tons of motivation and positivity. More specifically, we’re looking for someone who can demonstrate they have these attributes:
  2. Theory: Experience with regulations applicable to Payments and/or Investment businesses such as PSRs 2017 & EMRs 2011, applicable parts of the FCA handbook.
  3. Practice: Ability to conduct analysis on the UK Financial Regulations and provide comprehensive regulatory advice to the business.
  4. Passion: A problem-solver who enjoys finding innovative solutions and collaborating with different teams to deliver a mission.
  5. Get the job done: A sense of urgency and an ability to work well under pressure, prioritising, taking responsibility and communicating priorities effectively to others.
  6. Communication: A strong relationship builder across all levels of the business and externally, with the ability to influence others and empower teams to strengthen their processes to mitigate risks.
  7. Development: Consideration of the challenges and development opportunities of working at a fast-growing company.

Some extra skills that would be great:

Knowledge of merchant acquiring or CASS/Safeguarding regimes would be advantageous but not essential.

Lots of awesome opportunities for everyone, everywhere. We're people building money without borders — without judgement or prejudice, too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse, equitable and inclusive.

We're proud to have a truly international team, and we celebrate our differences.

How Many Biotechnology Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Biotech Job?

If you are trying to break into biotechnology or progress your career, it can feel like the list of tools you are expected to know is endless. One job advert asks for PCR, another mentions cell culture, another lists bioinformatics pipelines, automation platforms or GMP systems. LinkedIn makes it worse, with people sharing long skills lists that make you wonder if you are already behind. Here is the reality most biotech employers will not say out loud: they are not hiring you because you know every tool. They are hiring you because you understand biological systems, can work accurately and safely, follow protocols, interpret results and contribute reliably to a team. Tools matter, but only when they support those outcomes. So how many biotechnology tools do you actually need to know to get a job? The answer depends on the role you are targeting, but for most job seekers it is far fewer than you think. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are essential, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look employable rather than overwhelmed.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Biotechnology Job Applications (UK Guide)

Hiring managers in biotechnology do not start by reading your CV word for word. They scan for credibility, relevance and risk. In a regulated, evidence-driven sector like biotech, the first question is simple: is this person safe, competent and genuinely capable of contributing in this environment? Whether you are applying for roles in research, manufacturing, quality, regulatory, clinical, bioinformatics or commercial biotech, the strongest applications make the right signals obvious in the first 10–20 seconds. This in-depth guide explains exactly what hiring managers in UK biotechnology look for first, how they assess CVs, cover letters and portfolios, and why capable candidates are often rejected. Use it as a practical checklist before you apply.
