About PayJoy

This role

The compliance analyst role at PayJoy exists to ensure the company operates within the boundaries of data protection laws and industry regulations, particularly in regions with strict privacy laws like Brazil. This specialist is responsible for implementing robust compliance frameworks, managing data privacy policies, and mitigating risks related to data breaches or regulatory penalties. By ensuring adherence to legal standards, this role directly contributes to protecting PayJoy from potential litigation, safeguarding customer trust, and enabling secure, compliant business operations, which is critical in maintaining the company’s reputation and continuity, especially in markets that rely on sensitive customer data for device locking services and credit.

A successful candidate for the compliance analyst role at PayJoy should possess a strong understanding of data protection laws and regulatory compliance, particularly in regulated fields. They must have excellent analytical and problem-solving skills to assess risks, develop policies, and implement effective compliance programs. Attention to detail and the ability to stay up-to-date with evolving regulations are essential. The ideal candidate should also have strong communication skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams and provide clear guidance on compliance matters. Experience in managing audits, privacy impact assessments, and ensuring data security will be crucial, alongside the ability to work independently and drive a culture of compliance within the organization.
