GoHenry is a UK-based fintech company created by parents to pioneer financial education. More recently, GoHenry moved into Europe and the US by joining forces with French fintech company PixPay and US investing app, Acorns.

Together, Acorns, PixPay, and GoHenry had over 6 million members across 5 countries. GoHenry offers a debit card and app for kids and teens and companion apps for the family, with in-app tools for sending money, automating allowances, managing chores, setting savings goals, giving to charity, and in-app financial education lessons where kids can watch videos, take quizzes and earn points and badges. This is all designed to help kids and teens build good money habits that will last a lifetime.

Our Legal, Risk and Compliance team provides valuable support across GoHenry and Pixpay. We help with internal legal and compliance matters, data protection and privacy matters and also supporting general corporate governance requirements.

We’re currently looking for a Data Privacy Manager to join us on a 12 month fixed term contract, providing maternity cover. Ideally we’re looking for candidates who’d be available to start no later than July 2024 to enable a handover.
