Compliance & Ops Associate Job HoneyCoin

Finance Jobs. HoneyCoin Jobs

We’re looking for a highly ambitious operator who wants to build deep expertise at the intersection of compliance, payments, and frontier financial infrastructure. In this role, you’ll own the regulatory and operational foundation of a company moving real money across African and global corridors. You’ll need sharp attention to detail, strong follow-through, and the ability to build systems from scratch in a fast-moving environment.

This is the kind of role that turns a compliance career into a leadership one – fast.

What you will own from day one

• Partnership paperwork – onboarding packs, collecting documents, tracking status, keeping things moving.
• Compliance and licensing support – tracking requirements, renewals, and submissions across jurisdictions, starting with Kenya and Nigeria.
• AML/KYC – support the build and maintenance of frameworks, policies, and transaction monitoring processes.
• Documentation – keep SOPs and templates current so we are consistent and audit-ready at any time.
• Tracking and reporting – a simple weekly view of what is pending, blocked, and at risk.

Non-negotiables

• Very detail-oriented. Does not miss steps.
• Comfortable working with rules, documents, and checklists — and building them from scratch.
• Good follow-through. Flags issues early, not after the fact.
• 2 to 4 years in compliance, operations, risk, or a regulated environment.

Nice to have

• Fintech, payments, or crypto compliance background
• Experience with Chainalysis or Elliptic
• VASP licensing or cross-border regulatory knowledge
• Profiles that tend to thrive
• Compliance ops, risk ops, fintech ops
• Licensing support or legal ops
• Admin roles in regulated companies who want more scope

What success looks like in 3 to 6 months

• Partner onboarding and paperwork is smooth and predictable.
• Licensing and compliance tracking is tight. Nothing expires, no last-minute fire drills.
• Everything is organised so if we need to prove something, we find it fast.
• The founders trust that obligations are being watched and flagged proactively.
