## Job description

Wise has already pioneered new ways for people to transfer money across borders and currencies. Our customers can also manage their hard-earned money with the world’s first platform to offer true multi-currency banking. Your mission is to uplift our process management capabilities and work with the area leads to determine what good looks like. This role will be instrumental in transforming our current operational landscape into a more efficient, robust, and scalable system, ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory requirements and enhancing our ability to detect and prevent financial crime.

The successful candidate will leverage their expertise in Process Management methodologies, process automation, and change management to drive significant improvements across the organisation. It is a unique opportunity to join one of the fastest growing companies in Europe. With over 15 million happy customers we’re already moving more than £9 billion a month and have more than 2,500 people in our operations functions across the US, Estonia, Hungary and Singapore and 800 in Product and engineering.

### Your Mission

Run planning or discovery sessions to explore new opportunities to impact customer experience. Gather insights independently and put together business cases for improvements needed to impact positive customer outcomes.

Use data to make trade-offs between cost and efficiency, explain the reasoning, and deliver this with conviction.

### Data-Driven Success

Clearly define what success looks like for your processes and evaluate progress using a blend of qualitative and quantitative methods to demonstrate impact. Regularly communicate results and impact to wider teams (product/engineering/team calls/across offices). Identify patterns and themes impacting metrics proactively for incident prevention (e.g. SLA breaches). Identify the right metrics to track for customer outcomes and which teams drive those.

Own and move metrics for at least one domain, or influence teams to drive metrics that impact customer outcomes; work with teams towards meeting their KPIs and targets, whilst reporting on these to the wider organisation.

### Operational Control Mapping and Assurance

Rigorously map all existing operational Level 1 (L1) controls into the new process design, ensuring full coverage and alignment with regulatory expectations. Develop and implement a robust process for evidencing the effective operation of these controls.
