Legal Counsel Regulatory

Abound

London
Full-Time

Description

We're redefining consumer lending in the UK, and beyond. Using advanced AI and Open Banking data, we make fair, affordable personal finance available to more people. While traditional lenders rely almost entirely on credit scores, we look at the full financial picture - how much you spend, and what you can afford to repay to build a deeper, more accurate understanding of each customer's unique financial situation.

And we've shown it works at scale. We've issued over £1.3bn in loans directly to customers while delivering market-leading credit performance - for every 10 defaults the industry expects, we see only 3. We also reached profitability just 2.5 years after launch.

Backed by £2bn+ of funding from top-tier investors including Citi, GSR Ventures, and Deutsche Bank, we're recognised as one of Europe's fastest-growing fintechs (Sifted, CNBC). Now, we're expanding into new markets and product lines - and we're looking for ambitious people who want to learn fast, take ownership, and grow with us.

Fintern is a fast-growing fintech consumer lender. We're scaling up and entering new markets and introducing new products. We're hiring a Regulatory Counsel with strong Consumer Credit Act (CCA) and FCA CONC experience. You'll prepare submissions to the FCA and others and advise senior leadership on regulatory risk in your area. You'll also draft, implement, and monitor legally robust, plain‑English templates and ensure live documents match approved versions. We have a small legal team so you will also be expected to assist with broader legal work.
