@evachen
Project & partnerships coordinator building regulated financial partnerships with compliance-first, end-to-end execution.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Project & Partnerships Coordinator with a dual background in international commercial law and hands-on delivery across UK fintech and events. I bring a compliance-aware mindset, clear stakeholder communication, and a strong ability to prioritize competing deadlines in fast-paced environments.
In my current role as Channel Manager – Partnerships & Operations at Wynpay (Koala Money Limited / QBSG), I’m the sole point of contact for building and managing a payment channel partnership ecosystem across three regulated entities. I independently initiated, negotiated, and completed onboarding of 15+ global financial partners across banking, acquiring, compliance, and blockchain custody—taking each engagement through due diligence, technical integration, and go-live without dedicated project management support.
I also coordinate Visa EU membership onboarding for Koala Money Limited and support preparation of a MiCA licence application for QBSG Limited, aligning program milestones to regulatory requirements. I prepare and maintain partner onboarding documentation, compliance materials, KYB/KYC packs, and shareholder records across multiple jurisdictions, partnering with internal legal, compliance, and technical teams to ensure AML/KYC alignment and partner SLAs.
Earlier, I improved operational efficiency by 20% within my first month as Administrative Assistant to the CEO, drafting/reviewing and negotiating commercial contracts while providing day-to-day compliance and risk support. I’ve also led multicultural day-to-day operations as a café supervisor (maintaining customer satisfaction above 95%, training programmes, and reducing recurring issues by 30%) and coordinated international exhibition set-up and logistics—skills that translate directly into structured, people-focused execution.
