Cape Town, South Africa Luno Full time

The world is changing. We all want something different.

At Luno, we see you as an individual, and we want to unleash your potential and empower you to become the best possible version of yourself.

We are a mission-driven cryptocurrency company that is building more open and equal access to the future of money. You don't have to know lots about crypto to be interested in joining us, you just have to feel that upgrading the world to a fairer financial system matters, and that you'd like to be part of this global change. We're a passionate and committed team taking on a challenge of epic proportions. Like the first moon landing, it requires a special kind of people **working together** with unusual skill, focus and determination. We need the best team on board for our mission.

If that sounds like a culture you'd thrive in, then we are excited to hear from you.

**A little about us**
- Luno means moon in Esperanto, we chose the name because at night, wherever you are in the world, you look up at the same moon. We believe in the power of working together, as one team, across borders, with clear focus and shared purpose.
- Our popular mobile app and website helps people around the world grow and manage their money using the world's most mature cryptocurrencies: Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDC. We've processed over **$21 billion** to date.
- Over 7 million customers across 40 countries have chosen to hold their crypto wallets on Luno because we offer a delightfully simple experience and bank-grade security.
- We're part of the Digital Currency Group, named in 2021 as one of TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential Companies, in the "Disruptors" category alongside Tesla, AirBnB, SpaceX, Peloton. TIME noted that DCG is "mainstreaming cryptocurrency".
- We're proud to be one of the world's most international cryptocurrency teams, with colleagues from 43 different nationalities working across South Africa, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, Malaysia, Nigeria, Australia and Singapore.
- Financial inclusion is part of our mission, but on a deeper level, inclusion is a way of life, and a way of work for us. It is part of who we are as a company, and a group of human individuals.

**The role in a nutshell**

We are looking for an energetic, ambitious and talented **Regional Head of Compliance** for the Africa region, based in either our Cape Town or Johannesburg offices.

**Your mission will involve**:

- You will be the first point of contact for compliance related matters across Africa

- You'll support Luno's expansion plans in the region, acting as a key member of and advisor to the Country Launch team

**In your first six months, you will**

**Life at Luno**

Luno is a 'remote but reachable' company

At Luno, we trust that people can do their work effectively anywhere and provide Lunauts with the flexibility to decide where they do their best work. For some of us, that's at home for the majority of the time, for others, that might mean joining other Lunauts in person at one of our Luno workspaces more often.

Luno is built on our relationships, so we still value in-person connection and have a minimum expectation of spending time in person once a quarter.

So as long as you are based in one country with a Luno workspace, we want to hear from you
