Kontaktpersona
Julia Kerova
NivoBnK is an AI-first European payments company being built in Riga, Latvia, backed by the people behind some of the Nordics' best known fintech names.

We are applying for an Electronic Money Institution licence in Latvia and building two product lines. The first is core banking for merchants - IBAN accounts, payments in and out, and virtual cards. The second is account-to-account payments, where the merchant is our customer and their shoppers pay directly from their own bank account. Our merchant base includes online gaming operators, so this is a high-risk environment run to high standards.

As part of our development into operating an Electronic Money Institution (EMI) in Latvia we will be developing a strong and experienced Management Team based in Riga that is accountable for the Regulated Business and the day to day operational aspects of it.

Therefore, we are seeking highly experienced Senior Professionals, who are able to assume full accountability for Key Management & Control Functions within the Regulated Business, who will also work closely with the Board and the broader European Teams to ensure Authorisation and subsequent Growth of the business.
