Paralegal — Licensing & Compliance

Location: Toronto or Ottawa (Remote)

Salary + Bonus + Stock Options + Health Benefits

About Veem Veem is a global payments platform operating in 100+ countries, helping businesses send and receive international payments faster, more cost-effectively, and compliantly. Beyond serving customers directly, Veem powers payments for fintechs, marketplaces, payroll providers, and contractor platforms through a white-label model — handling payments orchestration, compliance, banking integrations, FX, and reliability at scale.

Role Overview This Paralegal role supports Veem's licensing and compliance function. You'll own the documentation, tracking, and operational processes that keep our regulatory licenses current across the US, Canada, and international markets, our compliance program running, and our partner onboarding and recordkeeping organized. The role works cross-functionally with Finance, Risk, and Onboarding teams to keep compliance embedded in day-to-day operations. If you thrive on structure, precision, and building systems that hold up under scrutiny, this role is built for you.

Key Responsibilities

Regulatory Licensing Maintain and track Veem's regulatory license portfolio across the US, Canada, and other international jurisdictions. In the US, this includes the money transmission licensing program across active and target states. Support regulatory examinations and remediation items across all jurisdictions, coordinate responses to examiner requests, and track corporate registrations and renewals to prevent lapses.

Examination & Audit Coordination Support coordination of regulatory examinations across Veem's licensing jurisdictions, as well as examinations and audits conducted by Veem's banking partners and partner customers. Maintain organized records and help prepare the compliance team and relevant stakeholders for examination readiness.

Compliance Program Support Provide operational support for Veem's ongoing compliance program — maintaining policies and procedures documentation, supporting audit and examination readiness, and helping ensure compliance obligations are tracked and met across the business.

Process Building & Recordkeeping Build and maintain the processes, templates, and tracking systems that support our day-to-day compliance operations. Own documentation workflows so records are consistent, organized, and audit-ready. Collaborate with Finance, Risk, and Onboarding to ensure compliance requirements are integrated into cross-functional workflows.

Partner Onboarding & Documentation Support compliance onboarding for Veem's partner relationships — tracking documentation requirements, conducting initial reviews of partner materials, supporting KYC validation, and maintaining the exceptions log for customers acquired through those channels.

Qualifications We're looking for someone with the right foundation and a willingness to grow into the role — not every element below is required on day one.

• Paralegal certification or equivalent legal/compliance training; bachelor's degree preferred
• Experience in compliance, legal, AML, or risk management — ideally in fintech or financial services
• Familiarity with US state money transmission licensing, FinCEN registration requirements, Canadian (FINTRAC), or other international licensing or regulatory frameworks is a plus
• Experience with KYC/AML processes or partner onboarding frameworks helpful
• Strong documentation and organizational skills; audit-ready work product
• Comfortable working independently in a remote, globally distributed environment
• Strong written communication skills

What Success Looks Like Within 60 days, you'll have a clear picture of Veem's license portfolio, compliance obligations, and documentation gaps. Within six months, the licensing program will be well-tracked across jurisdictions, compliance processes more consistent, and partner onboarding documentation organized and reliable. You'll be a trusted operational anchor
