🏢 The way we work

We are an informal and pragmatic organisation, where roles are not defined by rigid job descriptions. As a smaller company, we work with a strong sense of shared ownership, and you are expected to take initiative and run with tasks — even when they don’t fit neatly into a predefined role.

📍 Working setup & location

The role requires on-site presence at least three days per week, as close collaboration and daily operations are key. At the same time, we offer flexibility when needed.

Our office is located in Industriens Hus, centrally in Copenhagen, with easy access to train and metro.

🚀 Why Coinify

Coinify’s strongest asset is our brand and reputation. Compliance is not a side function — it is a core part of how we operate.

This role is ideal for someone who values learning, responsibility, and professional development, and who wants to build a strong foundation in compliance within the crypto and fintech sector.
