Jacaranda Finance is entering an exciting new phase of growth and we're looking for an exceptional risk and legal leader to help shape what comes next.
This is a newly created role with genuine influence. Reporting directly to the CEO and joining our Leadership Team, you'll own Jacaranda's end-to-end risk environment, act as our senior internal legal adviser and lead our Risk, Legal & Compliance function.
We're looking for someone who sees risk as an enabler, not simply a control function. You'll balance regulatory obligations, customer outcomes and commercial opportunity while helping a fast-moving, founder-led fintech scale responsibly.
This is a hands-on leadership role, not a passive oversight position.
You'll work closely with leaders across Lending, Credit, Growth, Technology, Collections, Hardship and Customer Operations, turning complex regulation into practical action and finding responsible ways for the business to move forward.
You'll be responsible for:
You'll receive:
We're a predominantly in-office business because we believe collaboration, coaching and problem-solving happen best when we work side by side. During probation, you'll work from our Milton office five days per week. Following successful completion of probation, you'll have the flexibility to work from home one day per week. Learn more about our culture, values and expectations in our Thriving Together @ Jacaranda Finance guide.
If you're a senior risk and legal leader who knows how to protect a regulated business while helping it move forward, we'd love to hear from you.
We may use AI-powered tools to support parts of our recruitment process, but all hiring decisions are made by people. Please contact us if you would like more information about how your data is handled.
