Brussels, Belgique Wise Temps plein

Since 2011, Wise has had a clear mission: money without borders. Built by and for people who live global lives, we're the fairest, easiest way to manage your money across borders.

We're just at the beginning of our story and we're growing at an incredible pace. We won't stop until anyone, anywhere can send, spend and receive money wherever they are, whatever they're doing. There's still heaps to do and we can't do it alone.

We're looking for a Policy and Government Relations Manager (Europe) to join our growing Brussels office to advance our policy and advocacy objectives and help us get closer to achieving our mission. You'll work closely with the product, communications, banking, legal, and compliance teams and join our small but mighty policy team scattered across North America, Europe, and Australia.

This is not your typical government relations job. It's much broader. You'll have radical autonomy to help us achieve our policy objectives and drive outcomes for our customers. You'll help raise our profile and establish relationships with key policymakers and stakeholders. And you'll understand how to translate complicated financial technology matters into compelling consumer-oriented issue advocacy campaigns.

**Your Mission**:

- Deliver policy engagement and consumer education campaigns
- Execute our regulatory and legislative advocacy strategy across Europe (excluding the United Kingdom, where we have a team)
- Build relationships with key policymakers and other stakeholders while increasing Wise's influence and visibility
- Collaborate with internal stakeholders to identify policy goals that complement our growth strategy
- Ensure that laws, regulations, and industry standards allow us to create the best product for our Wise customers, including:

- Transparent pricing on international payments by all industry participants;
- Instant, low-cost, 24/7 payment systems that we can access directly; and
- Modern payments regulations that create as little customer friction as possible

**This role will give you the opportunity to**:

- Choose your own path to success: You'll have the freedom to help define the vision and the responsibility for making it happen
- Become a policy thought leader: You'll have the opportunity to pitch big ideas and help modernise outdated financial laws and regulations for the digital age
- Develop a deep network: You'll establish collaborative relations with key policymakers, stakeholders, and influencers in the political and financial policy communities across more than two dozen countries

**A bit about you**:

- Passionate: You'll be a skilled advocate and deeply passionate about Wise, our mission, and delivering for our customers
- Significant political and/or policy experience: You'll have notable political and/or policy experience within the European Union and demonstrate the ability to work on financial services
- Laser focused on outcomes: We're a scale-up and you will need an entrepreneurial mindset to thrive. You'll be laser focused on driving outcomes to benefit our customers
- Media-savvy and a skilled communicator: You'll be a versatile and skilled speaker and writer even on complicated issues: from panels to social media to consultations and parliamentary questions, you are confident and compelling with multiple styles, and understand how to leverage public-facing mediums to drive policy outcomes
- Without borders: You're curious about other cultures, have a global mindset, and though the role is Brussels-based, you are prepared to spend time abroad for work
- Coalition builder: You'll understand how to leverage relationships, create connections, and ultimately build coalitions, with industry, consumers, and governments

**Bonus Points**:

- Finance or payments experience: This is not a prerequisite, we're looking for a confident self-starting superstar, but the transition will be easier with existing relationships and policy depth

**We're people without borders — and without prejudice too. We want to work with the best people, no matter their background. So if you're passionate about learning new things and keen to join our mission, you'll fit right in.**

**Also, qualifications aren't that important to us. If you've got great experience, and you're great at articulating your thinking, we'd like to hear from you.**

**And because we believe that diverse teams build better products, we'd especially love to hear from you if you're from an under-represented demographic.
