About ComplyFirst

Complyfirst is a reporting automation platform for financial services compliance teams. We remove 80% of manual reporting work so teams can focus on reviewing, not doing. We grew almost 6x last year and are hiring across the business.

Role Overview

We’re hiring a CESOP Manager to lead and operationalise our CESOP submission capability across the EU. Reporting to the CTO, you’ll own getting Complyfirst registered with EU tax authorities so we can submit CESOP XML reports on behalf of PSP clients.

This is a first-of-its-kind role. You will be our internal CESOP expert - owning tax authority registrations, understanding local submission requirements, engaging with regulators, supporting client conversations, and documenting the process so it becomes repeatable.

What You’ll Do

  • Register Complyfirst with EU tax authorities. Own the end-to-end registration process in each relevant EU Member State so we are authorised to submit CESOP data on behalf of PSP clients.
  • Own CESOP submissions. Work closely with our product and engineering teams to ensure submissions are valid, compliant, and successfully filed. Troubleshoot rejections and drive resubmissions where needed.
  • Lead client registrations. Work directly with clients on new CESOP registrations and country launches, acting as the operational lead throughout.
  • Monitor regulatory changes. Track updates across jurisdictions and translate them into clear internal actions before they become problems.
  • Build the process. Document everything in Confluence. If it lives only in your head, it doesn’t count.

What We’re Looking For

  • CESOP subject-matter expertise. You understand PSP reporting obligations and have hands-on experience registering and filing with EU tax authorities across multiple jurisdictions.
  • 2+ years of relevant experience. You’ve done this before, end to end. You’ve dealt with tax authorities directly and know how each country differs.
  • Operationally strong. You turn regulatory complexity into structured, repeatable processes. You don’t just understand the rules - you build the systems that implement them.
  • Autonomous and resourceful. You can figure things out from scratch. You read guidance carefully and get things done without needing to be told how.
  • Clear communicator. You can simplify complexity for internal teams and clients. Professional English, written and spoken, is essential.

This Role Is Not For You If…

  • You have never completed an end-to-end CESOP registration with a tax authority.
  • You’re uncomfortable dealing directly with regulators or government portals.
  • You struggle with ambiguity or cross-border regulatory complexity.
  • You need a lot of direction before you can start.
  • You prefer everything to be fully figured out before you move.

What We Offer

  • Full-time, hybrid or remote role
  • Competitive salary, based on experience
  • 35 days holiday (inclusive of bank holidays)
  • Company laptop
  • Ownership of a brand-new regulatory capability inside a fast-scaling compliance start-up
