About The Role
We are looking for a Compliance Operations Manager to own the day‑to‑day operational running of Crossmint’s regulatory and compliance program across all jurisdictions. This is not a policy‑writing role. It is an execution role. You will sit at the intersection of Legal, Product, Engineering, and Finance, and your job is to make sure our regulatory obligations are met on time, with the right evidence, and without constant escalation to the GC. You will manage license maintenance and regulatory reporting, build and evidence internal controls, coordinate cross‑functional compliance workstreams, and act as the operational backbone of a Legal and Compliance function that is scaling fast across multiple regulated jurisdictions.
ResponsibilitiesLicense Maintenance and Regulatory ReportingOwn the regulatory reporting calendar across all active licenses (Banco de España, CNMV, FCA, FinCEN, and others as we expand), ensuring all periodic filings are prepared and submitted on time.
Gather and consolidate information from internal stakeholders—Product, Engineering, Finance, Operations—in response to regulatory requests and supervisory queries.
Prepare and review regulatory reports, returns, and supervisory submissions, coordinating with external counsel where required.
Track license conditions and ongoing obligations, flagging changes in regulatory requirements and maintaining a live compliance calendar.
Internal Controls and EvidenceMaintain and evidence Crossmint’s internal controls framework, ensuring controls are documented, tested, and audit‑ready across relevant frameworks (MiCA, PSD2, DORA, SOC 2, GDPR).
Support Legal and Compliance in identifying control gaps and coordinating remediation across the relevant business owners.
Manage the production and organization of compliance documentation, policies, and procedures, ensuring they remain current and accessible.
Own audit readiness for regulatory examinations and third‑party audits, coordinating evidence collection and stakeholder responses.
Regulatory Project ManagementLead cross‑functional implementation workstreams for new regulatory requirements and license applications, owning timelines, dependencies, and internal accountability.
Chase and coordinate internal stakeholders—including Engineering and Product—to deliver compliance requirements on time, without defaulting to the GC for every escalation.
Manage relationships with external counsel, PSPs, banking partners, and third‑party vendors on compliance‑related workstreams.
Support the opening of banking accounts and onboarding of regulated service providers across jurisdictions.
Cross‑Functional Compliance EmbeddingWork directly with Engineering and Product to ensure regulatory constraints are understood and reflected at the design and build stage—including data flows, API architecture, access controls, and incident management processes.
Coordinate the update of customer‑facing materials (disclosures, terms, risk warnings) in response to regulatory changes.
Support the Financial Crime function as needed, including AML/CFT‑related controls documentation and CDD processes.
