About this role

Ebury helps ambitious businesses unlock global growth, and we take the same approach with our people.

This role reports to the Head of Financial Crime Intelligence Product and is based at Ebury's London office with a hybrid schedule of 4 days in the office and 1 day working from home per week. You will help shape the future of screening as Ebury expands across new products, verticals, and payment rails.
