What’s Yonder?

“It's as if Time Out, Amex and Monzo had a baby” - Will T, Yonder Member

We’re building the financial membership of the future. One that works for how you live now. Not how your parents banked in the ‘90s.

Yonder combines credit and debit in one membership, designed to be fair, flexible, and actually enjoyable to use. No confusing terms. No dusty points system. Just rewards that actually feel rewarding - from bao to beer to a boarding pass.

We raised £23.4M in September 2024 to grow the team, launch even better rewards, and expand beyond the UK. If that sounds good to you, you’ll probably like it here. 🎉

Sounds cool. What’s my part in this?

Over the last year we've added a debit card, a free membership tier, hundreds of new independent partners around the country, countless product improvements and our personal favourite, Yonder Flights, a new way to use Yonder points on any flight with any airline globally. We've maintained a 4.5 TrustPilot rating and our customers really love us (and we love them back... hi!).

Over the last 24 months, we’ve grown from just an idea to a beautiful, fully regulated financial product that our members absolutely love - especially the support we provide them.

The Legal & Compliance function continues to grow and we’re looking for a Compliance Associate to support our maturing 2nd line function.

What you’ll do

• Coordinate the delivery of Yonder’s compliance monitoring programme, including carrying out monitoring activities, gathering evidence, and tracking follow-up actions.

• Assist in providing day-to-day 2nd-line compliance support and challenge to the business, escalating issues to senior compliance where needed.

• Support compliance input into new products, product changes, and business initiatives under the guidance of senior compliance colleagues.

• Help maintain compliance policies, procedures, and control documentation, ensuring they are kept up to date.

• Track compliance risks, issues, and remediation actions, and help prepare management information and reporting.

• Assist with regulatory engagement activities, including preparing information and materials for regulator requests and reviews.

You're a great fit if you

✅ Have a strong compliance background: You have a solid foundation in how a compliance function should run and feel comfortable getting to grips with the ever changing compliance landscape. Having a consumer credit or Fintech background is a huge plus!

✅ Enjoy solving difficult problems and stay cool under pressure: We’ve got ambitious goals and we like to move fast. You need to be comfortable solving problems quickly and you need to keep your cool in order to find solutions if things go slightly pear-shaped.

✅ Are super practical: No-one likes an unnecessary checklist - you must love to think creatively and enjoy finding innovative solutions to even the most standard of compliance issues.

You won’t be a great fit if you

👎 You need a lot of structure and clearly defined processes. We’re still growing and figuring things out as we go.

👎 Aren’t comfortable working independently at times. Support is always there, but autonomy is important.

👎 Find it difficult to take ownership or make decisions when things aren’t clear-cut.

👎 Are looking for a strict 9–5. Some flexibility is needed in a fast-moving environment and working to tight deadlines.

What’s the interview process like?

We take the candidate experience really seriously, so we’ve made the process as transparent as possible. We also promise to be super responsive, and will never leave you wondering where you stand for weeks on end.

Here’s how it works:

• Stage 1: Intro call (45 mins):
  You will have an initial Google Meet call with David Stephens to find out more about you and to tell you more about us.

• Stage 2: Face-to-face interview (2 hours):
  Two 60-minute interviews to learn more about how you work. This will also be a great opportunity for you to meet the rest of the team so we would love it if you can come into the office for it! Interviews will be structured as follows:

  • Case study interview: We will provide a case study brief for you to work on in advance and present back your findings to the team.

  • Values interview: We want to learn more about how you work - we’ll ask you questions related to our principles (Our DNA). This stage will be with two people from our wider team.

  • We’ll also include a 15-minute comfort break ☕️

• Stage 3: We always complete reference checks at this stage - ideally with a previous manager and a peer over the phone

• Stage 4: Offer If everyone’s happy, we’ll make you an offer to join us - YAY! 🎉 We hope to always give you a decision between each stage within 24 hours (where possible).

Other things to know:

• We love closing the feedback loop at Yonder. You can expect specific feedback on our decision from Stage 2 onwards, and you can always ask for more.

• We must complete the right to work & criminal background checks for every new Yonder-er for compliance purposes because we handle sensitive customer data.

• We also do reference checks, ideally with your most recent manager on the phone.

• We like to move quickly at Yonder, so we will be ready to onboard you once the above checks are complete - the entire process can take between 2 - 6 weeks.

🌈 We know that diverse teams build better products. If you’re from an under-represented community, we’d especially love to hear from you.

👉 Even if you don’t feel 100% qualified, please do apply anyway. Your attitude and desire to grow are just as important as your experience.
