Compliance Specialist

Dive into a role where compliance meets innovation – join Lunar and help shape the future of banking with technology-driven solutions and a team that challenges the norm every day

Who we are
At Lunar we are democratizing the power of money and changing the way we all bank, pay, and invest. Since starting in Aarhus in 2015, we've grown rapidly and are now a major player in the Nordics, with offices in Copenhagen, Aarhus and Stockholm.

So, who are we? Are we a tech company or a bank? Well, we're both, breaking free from the usual categories. Tech isn't just a cool add-on here; it's the core of how we do things. With our own banking license, we go head-to-head with traditional banks. What sets us apart is the mix of tech and financial services, giving us the power to shake up a dusty industry ready for a change.

The opportunity
As we continue our journey to becoming the best everyday bank in the Nordics, we are looking for a Compliance Specialist to join our team. In this role, you will be located in the Copenhagen office and be part of our Compliance team, reporting to Karen Molin Holste.

You're a self-starter with initiative, able to recommend efficient solutions while respecting regulatory requirements. You bring a project manager's mindset to every assignment, balancing structure with adaptability. Strong communication skills are essential – you should be comfortable explaining, teaching, and collaborating with colleagues across the organization. Your investigative skills, combined with the ability to build trust, will help you navigate compliance matters effectively. We value individuals who are empowered to take charge of their risk areas and are passionate about utilizing their tech-savvy mindset to enhance our compliance and risk systems.

• Take charge of one or two compliance risk areas, working closely with our Compliance Management team to handle compliance findings in line with our strategy.
• Conduct regular compliance reviews and controls, ensuring things like managing processes and procedures related to complaints are up to date.
• Lead training sessions for your colleagues and management, covering topics within your assigned capability. This might include working with the DPO team on data retention practices.
