Internal Audit Manager

NEW DIGITAL BANK MISSION STATEMENT:

Join us on our mission to create a completely new, 100% digital bank that truly serves customers’ best interests. We are a close knit and fun-loving team of seasoned financial services professionals who came together for the challenge of building a bank from scratch – and we are committed to doing it all the right way (from technology infrastructure to modern marketing to customer experience).

We work with the flexibility and speed of start-up. But we also have significant stability and capital from being part of the SMBC Group (Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation). SMBC is the 2nd largest bank in Japan, and the 12th largest bank in the world with operations in over 40 countries. And SMBC is committed to disrupting the US marketplace with ground-breaking products.

It’s the best of both worlds, and we are seeking proven marketing leaders to propel us towards national launch. We have both the ambitious growth plans and the ‘patient capital’ necessary to execute a multi-year plan. Join us on the journey to deliver an exciting concept of evolved banking.
