About BJAK
BJAK is Southeast Asia’s largest digital insurance platform, expanding financial access through automation, data, and digital scale. As we grow across markets, we are committed to building a platform that is safe, compliant, and trusted.
We are hiring a Director of Compliance and Risk (UK) to lead regulatory strategy, risk governance, and compliance operations for our UK market entry and expansion alongside the CEO. This role is expected to hold the SMF16 (Compliance Oversight) Senior Management Function once approved, and will act as our primary point of contact with the FCA.

- Ensure BJAK operates in accordance with UK regulatory standards, especially FCA requirements.
- Protect consumers through transparent, fair, and ethical practices.
