You'll take ownership of our Anti-Money Laundering (AML), Counter-Terrorist Financing (CTF), sanctions and wider financial crime compliance framework, acting as our go-to expert on all things AML.

From overseeing complex investigations and making important risk-based decisions to collaborating with senior stakeholders and engaging with regulators, you'll help shape a strong compliance culture across the business.

Responsibilities

• Lead AML risk assessments, oversee customer risk methodologies and continuously improve KYC, due diligence, screening and transaction monitoring processes.
• Act as a key contact for regulators and relevant authorities, supporting regulatory enquiries, audits, inspections and compliance reviews.
• Monitor regulatory developments, identify emerging financial crime risks and ensure necessary changes are reflected in the company's AML framework.
• Provide independent advice, reporting and constructive challenge to senior management, escalating material risks and control weaknesses when needed.
• Collaborate with teams across Compliance, Fraud, Payments, Customer Operations, Responsible Gaming and other business areas to strengthen financial crime prevention.
• Promote AML awareness through training, guidance and a strong culture of risk identification and escalation.

Requirements

• Significant experience in AML, financial crime prevention or regulatory compliance, ideally within the online gaming industry.
• Previous experience engaging with the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC), including regulatory audits, reviews or information requests.
• Proven experience handling complex AML investigations, high-risk customer cases and regulatory reporting.
• Strong knowledge of KYC, CDD, EDD, Source of Funds, Source of Wealth, sanctions, PEP screening and transaction monitoring.
• Experience developing or overseeing AML frameworks, risk assessments, policies and internal controls.
• Confidence working with regulators, Financial Intelligence Units and other relevant authorities.
• Excellent analytical skills, sound regulatory judgement and the ability to make and communicate difficult risk-based decisions.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with the confidence to challenge decisions and influence senior colleagues.
• A proactive, commercially aware mindset, combined with high levels of integrity, independence and discretion.
