Deputy MLRO UK & EU

The Deputy MLRO will deputise for the MLRO & Head of Financial Crime and help ensure that YouLend's financial crime framework remains effective, risk-based and aligned with our continued growth across the UK and EU. YouLend has made significant investment in its financial crime infrastructure, including enhancements to KYC/KYB, AML controls, transaction monitoring, screening, MI, governance and Financial Crime Operations.

This is not a greenfield role. The focus is on owning, assuring and future-proofing the framework, including readiness for the EU AML Regulation in July 2027, so that it remains proportionate to YouLend's business model, regulatory obligations and risk appetite. The role will act as Nominated Officer under delegated authority from the MLRO, provide named cover across the UK and EU entities, and work with the Danish MLRO.

It will work closely with Legal, Regulatory Compliance, Financial Crime Operations, Product, Data, Engineering, Transformation and Commercial teams, and will support the Risk & Compliance Committee and regulatory engagement and reporting where required.
