Loading LAYIQ…From Pleo's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Messy spend management is tricky business. And tedious processes are a lose-lose situation for all involved, not just finance. At Pleo, we're changing that. We build spend solutions that make managing money seamless, empowering, and surprisingly effective for finance teams and employees alike - with a vision to help all businesses ‘go beyond’.
The word ‘Pleo’ actually means ‘more than you’d expect’, and living by that mantra has been the secret to our success over the last 10 years.
Now, we’re at a pivotal moment in our journey; every move we make has a direct impact on our 40,000+ customers, our business, and our collective success. We need people who take pride in uncovering customer needs, who turn complex problems into simple solutions, challenge the way things are done (respectfully), and always aim high. With great ambitions driving us forward, we can’t say we’ve got this whole thing figured out. And frankly, that’s half the fun!
What we can say is that we’re a driven, progressive, and, importantly, a kind bunch of 850+ people from over 100 nationalities, all committed to delivering the future of business spending, together.
We're looking for a Manager to join our Risk & Control team at Pleo. In this role, you'll operate as a key part of our Second Line of Defence, helping to strengthen the risk management framework that underpins everything we do — from our product to our regulatory relationships. You'll work at the intersection of risk expertise and business partnership, offering thoughtful challenges and practical guidance to our First Line teams as we continue to scale.
If you're excited by the prospect of shaping how a fast-growing FinTech approaches risk maturity, and are passionate about building robust, pragmatic control environments, this is the role for you.
This role is not suited to candidates whose background is primarily in professional services/consultancy, internal audit, or compliance without substantial risk and control experience.
Who you’ll be working with and reporting to You'll report directly to our Head of Risk and Control and work closely with First Line teams across the business. Our Risk & Control function is collaborative by design — you'll have regular exposure to senior stakeholders and the opportunity to partner with teams spanning Product, Operations, Finance, and Compliance to drive a culture of sound risk management across Pleo.
Get under the skin of Pleo's risk landscape and take ownership of key 2LOD review and challenge activities across priority business areas.
Play an active role in evolving our risk framework as the company continues to scale — contributing your expertise to initiatives that will shape how we manage risk for years to come.
Build strong relationships across the business, establishing yourself as a credible and trusted voice on risk matters.
We're committed to helping you grow here — whether that means deepening your technical expertise, expanding your regulatory knowledge, or stepping into broader leadership responsibilities as the team develops.
