Compliance Manager in London

Compliance Manager (Part-Time)

Help us maintain the highest standards of compliance as we grow.

Why this role exists

Match Bingo is a licensed gambling operator regulated by the UK Gambling Commission.

Everything we do – from acquiring players and running games to managing customer funds

– operates within a detailed regulatory framework.

As the business grows, we're looking for an experienced Compliance Manager to oversee

our day-to-day compliance responsibilities, ensure we continue to meet our regulatory

obligations, and help embed compliance into the way we operate.

You'll be supported by an experienced gambling lawyer who provides specialist legal and

regulatory advice when required, but you'll take ownership of the compliance function on a

day-to-day basis.

This is a part-time role (up to three days per week) reporting directly to the CEO.

● Manage the company's compliance with the UK Gambling Commission's Licence

Conditions and Codes of Practice (LCCP).

● Prepare and submit all regulatory returns, key event notifications and other statutory

filings on time.

● Monitor regulatory developments and update policies and procedures where

necessary.

● Act as the day-to-day contact for the UK Gambling Commission.

Safer gambling

● Maintain and continually improve our safer gambling framework, including

affordability assessments, customer interaction processes, self-exclusion, reality

checks and deposit limits.

● Ensure compliance with the LCCP and Remote Technical Standards (RTS).

● Review customer cases where intervention may be required and support operational

teams with appropriate actions.

● Deliver safer gambling training across the business.

Anti-money laundering

● Maintain the company's AML and Counter Terrorist Financing policies in line with

UKGC expectations and current guidance.

● Oversee customer due diligence, enhanced due diligence, PEP and sanctions

screening.

● Review and submit Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) where appropriate.

● Ensure compliance with the Proceeds of Crime Act and Money Laundering

Regulations.

KYC and age verification

● Ensure robust age and identity verification processes remain effective and compliant.

● Work closely with Engineering and Operations to ensure systems and processes

continue to meet regulatory requirements.

● Maintain compliance with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

● Keep the Record of Processing Activities (ROPA) up to date.

● Manage data subject requests and any data breach reporting requirements.

Information security

● Maintain our ISO 27001 Information Security Management System (ISMS), ensuring

policies, controls and documentation remain current.

● Manage surveillance audits and recertification activities, acting as the primary contact

for external auditors.

● Maintain the information security risk register and ensure agreed actions are

completed.

● Commission annual penetration testing and vulnerability assessments, working with

Engineering to ensure identified issues are addressed appropriately.

● Support the ongoing development of information security awareness across the

business.

External relationships

● Work with our lawyer on complex legal or regulatory matters requiring specialist

advice.

● Liaise with external auditors, testing laboratories and dispute resolution providers

where required.

About you

You'll ideally bring the following:

● Strong knowledge of the UK Gambling Commission's regulatory framework and

practical experience of applying it within an online gambling business.

● A pragmatic approach to compliance. You understand how to manage risk without

creating unnecessary bureaucracy, and you're comfortable finding practical solutions

that work for both the regulator and the business.

● Confidence to challenge where necessary. You'll occasionally need to advise against

a proposal or recommend changes, and you're able to do so constructively.

● The ability to work independently. This is a standalone role, so you'll be comfortable

managing your own priorities while keeping the CEO informed of significant issues.
