“Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.” Henry Ford

At Mercury, we continue to solve problems by building a banking* experience that over 100,000 startups trust. It requires creating a savvy and seamless product experience for our customers, who are driving change in the world through their creation of smart products and solutions.

Ford is said to have approached life as “one of these people who didn't take a job because he knew how to do it, he often took jobs because he didn't know how to do them, and they were opportunities to learn." This approach serves as the foundation at Mercury, where curiosity and humility are the basis of our existence.

As such, you’ll bring an unquenchable thirst to dive into areas you aren’t an expert in, learn from them and offer your tribute in return. In this way, you will add to the talented, diverse, curious group of entrepreneurial spirited creators to help take Mercury into its ideal form. Mercury’s culture cherishes humility, curiosity, quality, and creativity. These are attributes you must add to that culture.

Ford’s view of creativity is eloquently stated as “You say I started out with practically nothing, but that isn't correct. We all start with all there is, it's how we use it that makes things possible.”

This role will require you to find something within what appears as nothing. You’ll need a keen eye for identifying potential, thinking innovatively and a strong sense of ownership and accountability to drive results. You’ll bring a collaborative mindset to helping manage the tightrope of pushing the boundaries and maintaining solid risk and compliance controls.

Mercury’s Compliance team is looking to add a hi tech visionary Compliance Solutions Manager to build out our governance, risk and compliance needs, represent our practices and policies to internal customers, partners and auditors, and identify and create ways to leverage technology, such as a GRC solution, to measure the effectiveness of our Compliance Management System.
