About the PSR and team

Every time anyone uses a cash machine, transfers money, uses contactless, or gets paid, they use a payment system. Payment systems are always evolving and the PSR is here to make sure they work well for everyone. Follow this link to find out more About The PSR.

The PSR is an independent economic regulator led by interim Managing Director, David Geale – who is also FCA Executive Director, Payments and Digital Finance. Operationally the PSR is currently an independent subsidiary of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), however in March 2025 the Prime Minister announced that the PSR would be consolidated into the FCA, a pragmatic next step in simplifying regulation of payments.

This transition will likely take some time and will follow a Government consultation, although the Government has already been clear that payment systems must continue to be effectively regulated. For the time being, therefore, the PSR continues to focus on delivering its important and impactful programme of work, collaborating closely with the FCA.

The Payment Services Market Interventions Department (PSMI) you are applying to join will ultimately move into the FCA when the new legislation takes effect. Candidates should be aware, therefore, that there may be changes to their responsibilities as consolidation into the FCA progresses.

The Future Payment Systems and Infrastructure team you are applying to join will ultimately move into the FCA when the new legislation takes effect. Candidates should be aware, therefore, that there may be changes to their responsibilities as consolidation into the FCA progresses.

We are seeking an experienced professional to take ownership of complex workstreams and provide leadership across the team’s portfolio.

Working closely with the Manager, Future Payment Systems & Infrastructure, you will help develop and implement a new onboarding strategy, ensuring a consistent and transparent approach to payment systems that may come under PSR or FCA oversight.

Building and maintaining a deep understanding of emerging firms, the environments they operate in and the strategic and operational risks they pose

Supporting senior colleagues in the transition of payment systems onboarding into the FCA’s framework, including new ways of working, governance and engagement models

Demonstrated experience in supervision, monitoring or regulatory relationship management roles within a regulator or regulated environment

Experience of operating with significant internal and external influence, including engagement with senior stakeholders

Well-developed judgment, decision-making and strategic thinking skills, with the ability to operate effectively on sensitive or high-profile issues

Well-developed organisational and planning skills, with the ability to balance strategic priorities with day-to-day delivery
