## Job description

Compliance Manager

🌍 About Outpost Outpost is cross-border commerce infrastructure, built by veterans of Revolut, Adyen, Airwallex, and Wayflyer. We operate dedicated local entities across 58 jurisdictions, giving enterprise merchants access to local acquiring, alternative payment methods and full tax compliance through a single integration. We handle the local complexity so merchants can focus on growth. We are building a local team in Turkey and are growing fast. This is a foundational hire for our Turkish operations.

🏗️ The role You will be the on-the-ground owner of compliance for Outpost in Turkey. In Turkey we act as commercial agent for international merchants, concluding sales in Turkish lira on their behalf while a licensed local payment provider handles the payments. Your job is to keep that model compliant and trusted: by our partners, by our merchants and by the authorities. This is a hands-on role spanning merchant due diligence, AML and fraud controls, consumer-law compliance and regulatory relationships. You'll work closely with our global legal, compliance, finance and operations teams, plus Turkish legal counsel.

📋 What you'll do 🛡️ Compliance & Financial Crime

- Own the local compliance programme for Outpost in Turkey: policies, controls, monitoring and reporting, aligned with our global compliance framework
- Apply Outpost's global AML and sanctions standards locally, including merchant due diligence (KYB), ongoing monitoring and escalation of unusual activity
- Review merchants for compliance with Turkish consumer-protection and e-commerce rules before and after go-live
- Oversee refund, chargeback and dispute patterns from a compliance and fraud perspective, working with our payment partners
- Maintain the Turkey compliance obligations tracker and make sure one-off and recurring obligations are met on time

🤝 Regulatory & Partner Relationships

- Act as the local point of contact for compliance matters with our licensed payment provider and banking partners, including their due-diligence and audit requests
- Support correspondence with the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye (CBRT) and other authorities, together with global legal and local counsel
- Monitor Turkish regulatory developments (payment services, e-commerce, consumer protection, data protection, foreign exchange) and flag implications for Outpost and merchants
- Work with the local finance and operations team on tax, invoicing and fund-repatriation compliance
- Train local and global colleagues on Turkish compliance requirements as the team grows

🔍 What we're looking for

- 5+ years in compliance at a Turkish payment institution, e-money institution or PSP
- Hands-on AML/KYC and fraud experience, including merchant onboarding and transaction monitoring
- Strong working knowledge of Turkey's payment-services framework, CBRT regulations and financial-crime expectations
- Familiarity with Turkish consumer-protection, e-commerce and data-protection rules is advantageous
- Experience dealing with regulators, acquirers or bank compliance teams
- Comfortable operating in fast-moving, internationally distributed teams
- Fluent Turkish; working English required for global team communication

🚀 Why Outpost The company is at an inflection point. Cross-border commerce infrastructure addresses one of the most important problems in global trade. You will build compliance for Outpost in Turkey from the ground up, in a model almost nobody else offers there today, with real scope and accountability from day one.

## About Outpost Technologies

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Outpost provides global commerce infrastructure, acting as a legally liable Merchant of Record, Tax of Record, and Importer of Record to let businesses sell anywhere without managing local entities.
- **Entity Type**: Private (funding stage not publicly available)
- **Headquarters**: London, England (with offices in Amsterdam, Netherlands, and New York opening soon)
- **Founded**: 2024
- **Founders**: Not publicly available

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Cross-border payments, tax compliance, and logistics infrastructure for e-commerce and B2B.
- **Target customers**: B2B – merchants, marketplaces, and any business selling internationally (enterprise and high-growth SMB).
- **Mission or purpose**: “Making business borderless” – Outpost takes on legal liability for taxes, customs, and payments so clients can focus on growth.

## Products & Services
- **Merchant of Record (MoR)**: Outpost becomes the legal seller in local markets, enabling local acquiring (boosts approval rates 10‑15%), like‑for‑like FX settlement, and access to local payment methods. Works alongside any PSP.
- **Tax of Record (ToR)**: Outpost registers, calculates, files, remits indirect taxes across 58+ jurisdictions and handles audit notices. The company owns the full tax liability.
- **Importer of Record (IoR)**: Handles customs declarations, duty calculations, import VAT, and goods classification (AI‑powered HS code). Essential for EU/UK shipments after the July 2026 de minimis removal.
- **B2B Invoicing**: Outpost becomes the local seller for cross‑border B2B transactions, issuing compliant invoices and remitting proceeds, reducing withholding tax (e.g., up to 40% in Brazil).

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed
- **Key Metric**: Customers process over $1 billion annually through Outpost (company revenue not publicly available).
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed; team background includes builders from Revolut, Adyen, and Airwallex.
- **Growth Signals**: Offices in London and Amsterdam, New York opening soon; serves 58+ jurisdictions; claims average revenue increase of $500k and 25‑40% improvement in payment approval rates for clients.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Liability‑based model**: Unlike tax software (e.g., Avalara, Vertex), Outpost takes the full legal and financial liability for taxes, customs, and fines – not just software.
- **Full‑stack infrastructure**: Combines Merchant of Record, Tax of Record, and Importer of Record in one API, with the ability to work alongside existing PSPs and logistics providers.
- **AI‑powered classification**: Automated HS code classification for customs, reducing manual effort and errors.
- **Scalable and isolated**: Each client gets its own legal entity, avoiding contamination from other merchants’ risk or audits.

## Strategic Focus
- **Global expansion**: Adding new markets (LATAM, APAC, USA) and preparing for EU de minimis changes in July 2026.
- **Deepening the infrastructure layer**: Continuing to own more of the cross‑border compliance stack (payments, tax, customs) to simplify international selling.
- **Talent acquisition**: Hiring aggressively in London, Amsterdam, and soon New York for engineering, strategy & operations, legal, and marketing roles.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as built on trust, collaboration, and common decency; they challenge ideas and are open to being challenged. Values include a “ridiculous bias for action,” strong EQ, extreme hard work, and comfort with ambiguity.
- **Work environment**: In‑office (London, Amsterdam) with full sponsorship for international hires; New York office opening soon.
- **Team**: Composed of talent from top fintech brands (Revolut, Adyen, Airwallex) – an opportunity to work with experienced operators.
- **Impact**: Directly shaping the infrastructure for global commerce; roles involve building scrappy systems and solving hard problems at scale.
