  • Act as the primary operational interface between Onboarding, Compliance (TM and Regulatory), Risk, Product, and Business teams to resolve onboarding bottlenecks and complex cases.
  • Drive continuous improvement of onboarding workflows, documentation standards, tooling, and automation to improve efficiency and customer experience.
  • Review and approve higher-risk onboarding cases, including PEPs and customers from higher-risk jurisdictions, in line with established risk frameworks.
  • Ensure onboarding processes are well-documented, auditable, and consistently applied across jurisdictions and products.
  • Support regulatory examinations and internal audits by providing clear evidence of onboarding execution and controls.
  • Contribute to onboarding strategy, capacity planning, and scaling initiatives as the business grows.

  • Proven experience leading onboarding or KYC execution teams, including performance management and process ownership.
  • Strong practical understanding of AML, CTF, and KYC requirements, with the ability to translate regulatory expectations into operational processes.
  • Experience working in regulated financial institutions, fintechs, or virtual asset platforms is strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrated ability to balance regulatory compliance with efficiency, service levels, and business needs.
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, comfortable working with Compliance, Risk, Product, and Commercial teams.
  • Bachelor’s degree in a relevant field. Professional certifications such as CAMS are an advantage but not mandatory.
  • Proficient in written and verbal English. Mandarin proficiency is required to support client documentation and stakeholder communication.
