We’re looking for a Financial Crime Specialist (focused on suspicious activity reporting) to join our team in Budapest, Hungary. This role is a unique opportunity to have an impact on Wise’s mission and grow as a specialist in financial crime. Your mission is to protect our customers and Wise by reporting suspicious activity.

Fluency in Bahasa Indonesia (both written and verbal) is essential for this role, as you'll be working with cases and documentation in the language on a daily basis.

At Wise, you’ll work closely with global teams across Europe, the Americas, and Asia — giving you first hand exposure to international financial crime frameworks, processes, and regulations. It’s a great opportunity to expand your expertise beyond Hungary, learning how different markets approach financial crime risk management and compliance.

You’ll build deep knowledge in financial crime investigations, typologies, and SAR reporting — all while contributing to a fast-growing global fintech that’s making money movement fairer and safer for everyone.

If you’re passionate about financial crime prevention, eager to grow in a dynamic and international environment, and ready to make a real impact — we’d love to have you on our team.
