About us:
We believe the next generation of financial services will be powered by stablecoins.
Founded in 2021, our mission at BVNK is to accelerate global money movement.
We’re building stablecoin-native infrastructure so businesses can move value instantly across borders and networks. With global licenses and T1 bank partnerships, we facilitate billions in transactions for enterprise clients like Worldpay, Deel, LianLian Global, and Rapyd.
Our technology is transforming how businesses operate globally by eliminating payment delays, reducing costs, and unlocking trapped capital.
We’re a diverse team spread across EMEA, North America, and APAC, with a shared belief that stablecoins are the new infrastructure layer for financial services, and that BVNK is at the forefront of this shift.
In 2025, we secured strategic investment from Visa, following our $50 million Series B with Haun Ventures, Coinbase Ventures, Scribble Ventures, DRW Venture Capital, Avenir, and Tiger Global. With the backing of these leading investors, we’re accelerating our growth – and we're looking for smart, ambitious people to help us build the future of financial services.
We're incredibly honored to have made Newsweek's list of The Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces three years running (most recently in 2025) and to have been recognised by LinkedIn as one of the Top 20 Startups in the UK in 2024.
About this role in the team:
We're looking for an experienced Financial Crime Product Manager to join our team. In this role, you will be responsible for the end-to-end product lifecycle of our financial crime tools and systems, managing the engineering backlog, and driving a roadmap focused on mitigating financial crime risk. This role is crucial to ensuring our technology remains robust, compliant, and ahead of evolving threats like money laundering, fraud, and sanctions evasion.
You will act as the key liaison between the business and our engineering teams, translating complex financial crime requirements into clear, actionable user stories. You will manage the backlog, prioritize tech debt, and champion new features and innovation that directly enhance our ability to detect and prevent illicit financial activity across multiple product lines.
Responsibilities

- Stakeholder Management: Serve as the primary point of contact for engineering teams. Effectively communicate product vision, requirements, and priorities. Work closely with Compliance, Legal, Financial Crime Intelligence, and other business stakeholders to gather requirements and define product solutions.
- Innovation & Enhancement: Proactively identify opportunities for innovation and new features that improve the effectiveness and efficiency of our financial crime prevention capabilities. This includes leveraging new technologies like machine learning and AI to enhance our detection models.
- Regulatory & Compliance Expertise: Stay up-to-date with global financial crime regulations (e.g., AML, KYC, Sanctions, and Fraud) and emerging trends. Ensure our products are built and maintained in a way that meets or exceeds these compliance standards.
- Performance Analysis: Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) for our FinCrime products. Use data and insights to inform product decisions, measure success, and identify areas for improvement.
- Risk & Prioritization: Prioritise work based on a clear understanding of risk, business value, and technical complexity. Make difficult trade-off decisions to balance competing priorities from different business units.

- Excellent communication skills with the ability to articulate complex technical and regulatory concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- A data-driven mindset and a track record of using data to inform product decisions.
