About this role

This full-time role handles a broad range of legal and compliance work for a fintech startup. The position works closely with business departments and supports the digital wallet service, which enables Visa card issuance, payments, transfers and spending management through an application.

Day-to-day responsibilities include responding to legal and compliance consultations from internal departments; drafting and reviewing contracts, terms of use and related documents; and assessing new services and features from legal and compliance perspectives. The role also manages shareholder meetings, including general preparation, rehearsals and support on the day of the meeting. Additional responsibilities include developing and operating internal rules, guidelines and business processes, coordinating with external lawyers and specialists, and handling other legal and compliance matters.

Candidates should have knowledge in either the legal or compliance field and practical experience gained at a financial services operator such as a bank or credit union. The posting describes this as a position where that experience can be used while working close to the business rather than being limited to legal matters alone.

The company develops and operates its card issuance, payment system and application in-house. The stated internal tools include Slack for communication; Zoom, Google Meet and huddle meetings for web conferences; Google Calendar; Gmail; Google Workspace, including Sheets, Docs and Slides; Microsoft 365; Kibela; and Zapier. PCs may be Mac or Windows.

The work location is in Kita-Aoyama, Minato, Tokyo. The hiring process consists of document screening, a first interview, a second interview, a final interview and an offer.
