Description
About Klar
Klar is on a mission to democratize financial services in Mexico—because half of the population still doesn’t have access to a bank account. We’re building the future of fintech with a rich set of debit and credit products, and we’ve already served over 2 million users since our launch in 2019! 🚀

Our values
Ownership - We own our successes & our failures as a team.
Excellence - We do everything to the best of our ability & always seek to achieve a new level of excellence in our work.
Inclusion - We believe we are stronger together and actively work to promote a safe, diverse, inclusive, and respectful culture.
Customer Obsession - We understand the value Klar can bring to its customers & it’s always at the forefront of our decisions.
Klarity - We communicate clearly & with authenticity. It’s in our name & it’s what we do.

Functioning as a strategic "second line of defense," you will partner with our business units to pinpoint risks and document existing gaps.

Experience in control design, findings management, RCSA, risk-control matrices, regulatory reports, filings, and vendor monitoring.
Advanced english level.
Technical skills:
In-depth knowledge of CUB, LIC, and regulations applicable to credit institutions.
Knowledge of PLD/FT, CNBV, Banxico, CONDUSEF, and banking corporate governance.
Familiarity with COSO, operational risk, technological controls, business continuity, and third-party management.
Ability to use data, dashboards, advanced Excel, SQL, BI tools, automation, and artificial intelligence to monitor controls and propose solutions.
Softskills:
"Enabling control" mindset: ability to say "no" when necessary, while proposing viable alternatives.
Highly collaborative approach with business, technology, operations, legal, compliance, risk, and audit teams.
Ability to use artificial intelligence as a tool for analysis, research, documentation, automation, and problem-solving.
