We serve finance teams across 32+ countries, cutting month-end close time and reconciling 99.7% of transactions with zero manual touch. AI runs through the platform as core infrastructure, not a bolted-on feature - and we hire the top 1% of talent in every function to keep building it that way.\nWhy Payhawk\nPayhawk, where the bold builders make an impact.\nWe're not a family, we're a high-performance team - and that's deliberate. We debate, ideate, and push each other to be better, because the best ideas come from direct feedback. We've already made history as Bulgaria's first unicorn, but the ambition doesn't stop there: if you want to grow fast - own it; do not wait for it.\nGive: Honest opinions, real ownership, a focus on outcomes.\nGet: A front-row seat to a market leader in one of the fastest-moving industries.\nThe role, in one line\nPayhawk's automation now does much of the KYC data work, from document intake to risk scoring, and you will own corporate onboarding cases end to end, bringing the judgement and calibration it cannot.\nWhat you will own\nOwn corporate client applications end to end, across all our markets, from first review to decision.\nAnalyse complex corporate structures and international documentation, and work out what each structure really tells you about risk.\nRun PEP, sanctions, and adverse media screening on applicants, companies, and their representatives, and resolve alerts with a clear rationale.\nUse our AI and automation tooling as your default way of working. Check its output rigorously, and tell us where it is wrong so we can refine it.\nChallenge what we ask customers for. If a document adds no risk value, say so and make the case.\nEscalate potentially fraudulent activity to the MLRO with a tight, evidence-led write-up.\nWork directly with customers and Account Executives to move cases forward, rather than waiting for a thread to update.\nHit and beat throughput and quality targets, and help the team do the same.\nBring ideas that change how the function works, not just how your own queue works.\nWhat you will need\nMust-have\nStrong reasoning ability. You can hold a messy, ambiguous problem in your head, break it into parts, and reach a defensible answer without a checklist.\nExcellent written and spoken English. You can explain a decision plainly to a customer and defend the same decision to an auditor.\nYou are genuinely AI native. You already use AI daily, you know what it is good and bad at, and you treat a wrong output as something to diagnose, not a reason to go back to doing it by hand.\nYou are target driven. You want to know what good looks like and beat it, and you find the numbers motivating rather than oppressive.\nYou are inventive. You look at a process, see the eleven steps that could be three, and do something about it.\nWillingness to learn compliance properly, including the regulation and the reasoning behind the rules, and to be assessed on it.\nJudgement and ownership under uncertainty. You would rather make a reasoned call and be accountable for it than wait to be told. You know when to escalate, you escalate with a recommendation rather than a question, and you can always show your working.\nComfort talking to customers. Much of this role is a service role as well as a control role.\nOwnership and entrepreneurship.\nA positive attitude and energy.\nOpenness to feedback.\nComfort with a fast-changing environment.\nA team orientation and strong interpersonal skills.\nA degree in any discipline, or equivalent evidence that you learn quickly and think rigorously.\nNice-to-have\nExperience in a regulated financial services, fintech, or professional services environment.\nPrior AML, KYC, or KYB experience, or exposure to fraud, audit, or forensic work.\nAdditional European languages.\nA history of building your own tools, scripts, prompts, or workflows to make your work faster.\nWhat you will get\nRecharge properly - 30 days of paid holiday\nChange the view - a week-long exchange to London, Amsterdam, Paris, Munich, Vilnius, Berlin, Sofia, or Barcelona\nWin together, celebrate together - regular team-wide events that are actually worth showing up to\nCovered, properly - additional medical care\nStay in the game - a sports card, fully funded, for the gym, classes, or your sport of choice\nCommute easily - a monthly travel allowance that covers getting to and from the office\n Use what you build - hands-on access to the actual product you're hiring people to help build\nPayhawk is an Equal Employment Opportunity Employer. Qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender perception or identity, national origin, age, marital status, protected veteran status, or disability status.","description_format":"text","description_chars":4946,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All levels","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Cards & Card Issuing","Procurement & Spend Management"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-05T14:02:30Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":8,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.283,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":842,"expected_fill_days":195,"reasons":["conf:0","velocity","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-05T05:54:30Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/payhawk-kyc-analyst","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/payhawk-kyc-analyst.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-05T06:11:39Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":7642,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-06T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":51389},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=51389"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fpayhawk-kyc-analyst"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fpayhawk-kyc-analyst"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fpayhawk-kyc-analyst"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/payhawk-kyc-analyst\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fpayhawk-kyc-analyst"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":285849}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"payhawk.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":285849},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
