Tel Aviv, Tel Aviv, Israel LAYA App Full time

About LAYA

LAYA is a fast-growing fintech building multi-currency payment solutions for global travelers. Backed by Altshuler Shaham, we operate with the agility of a startup and the stability of a major financial group. Our platform supports multi-currency wallets, card issuing, FX services, and cross-border payments — and we recently obtained our own Mastercard issuing license.

About the Role

We are looking for someone who can lead company-level compliance programs and regulatory obligations, drive cross-functional projects, and conduct hands-on compliance execution.

You will own broad regulatory responsibilities that shape how LAYA operates as an issuer, a payments company, and part of a regulated financial group.

What You Will Lead



Own and manage LAYA's corporate compliance frameworks — covering payments regulation, issuer obligations, and internal group standards


• Act as the primary compliance interface with the Israel Securities Authority (ISA) — including regulatory reporting and ongoing supervision


• Manage Mastercard compliance obligations (QMR, SAFE, SAR) and ensure full alignment with scheme requirements


• Work directly with Altshuler Shaham's Chief Compliance Officer to maintain high standards of governance and regulatory integrity


• Serve as the compliance lead for external partners: Mastercard account managers, processors, acquirers, and additional ecosystem stakeholders


• Conduct focused AML and KYC procedures when required, ensuring policy adherence and supporting the company's broader risk and compliance posture

What We're Looking For



2+ years in corporate compliance, regulatory affairs, financial regulation, or legal roles (payments, fintech, capital markets, or financial institutions)


• Background in legal, regulatory, or policy work – compliance officers, legal counsels, or regulatory project managers welcome


• Demonstrated experience working with ISA or other financial regulators


• Strong understanding of the payments ecosystem, mandatory


• Experience with the Mastercard scheme or other card networks – strong advantage


• Ability to translate regulation into operational and technical requirements


• High ownership, independent work style, and ability to manage multiple regulatory workstreams


• Excellent English (written and spoken), as most external interactions are international


• Knowledge of FX and multi-currency operations – advantage

Who This Role Is For

You thrive in environments where compliance is 
strategic
, not administrative. You enjoy interpreting regulation, advising teams, leading processes, and making sure an innovative product is built responsibly and correctly.
