About the Role
We’re looking for a Manager, Privacy & Regulatory Compliance to lead and scale Plooto’s privacy program while helping the business adopt AI, automation, and data-driven technologies responsibly.
Privacy expertise is the foundation of this role. As AI becomes more widely adopted across Plooto, the number and complexity of decisions involving personal and sensitive information will continue to grow. You will help the business navigate these decisions thoughtfully—establishing clear guardrails, identifying material risks, and enabling teams to innovate without creating unnecessary process or paperwork.
This is a hands-on individual contributor role for someone who is pragmatic, curious, and comfortable working in areas where the answers are still evolving. We are not looking for someone with decades of AI governance experience. We are looking for a strong privacy professional who is genuinely interested in AI, asks thoughtful questions, keeps up with emerging developments, and is excited to help shape Plooto’s approach.
You will also support the ongoing implementation of Plooto’s Enterprise Risk Management framework and provide additional capacity across the broader regulatory compliance program. Prior depth in ERM or AML/ATF is not essential; what matters is an ability and willingness to learn, apply sound judgment, and contribute where needed.
You’ll work closely with Product, Engineering, Security, Legal, People, Operations, and other teams to translate complex requirements into practical, proportionate solutions that help Plooto move quickly and responsibly.
The role reports to the Senior Manager, Compliance within the Payments Strategy & Compliance function.
