About the job:

We’re looking for a highly experienced and hands-on MLRO & Senior AFC Manager to lead all aspects of Anti-Financial Crime at Midnite. This is a senior role with regulatory accountability and a direct impact on our licence to operate. You’ll own the AML, CTF, and broader AFC frameworks, be a key point of contact with the UKGC and law enforcement, and drive continuous improvement across controls, reporting, and risk management. This isn’t a passive oversight role; this is for someone who gets stuck in, challenges the status quo, and ensures AFC is embedded into every part of the business.

Responsibilities:

• Hold the MLRO PML, including full accountability for reporting, oversight, and regulatory engagement.

• Own and continually improve the AML/CTF framework, including risk assessments, policies, procedures, and training.
• Monitor and oversee all suspicious activity reporting, including submitting SARs to the NCA.
• Lead AFC investigations and ensure appropriate escalation, documentation, and resolution.
• Develop and maintain the firm’s Business Risk Assessment (BRA) and Customer Risk Assessment (CRA).
• Work closely with the Head of Regulatory Compliance, Safer Gambling, Payments and Data teams to ensure aligned risk mitigation across functions.
• Ensure effective transaction monitoring, PEP/Sanctions screening, and customer due diligence processes are in place and regularly reviewed.
• Prepare and present regular AFC reports to the board and regulators.
• Support in audits, regulatory inspections, and information requests from the UKGC or other authorities.
• Act as a subject matter expert across AFC-related issues, including fraud, bribery, sanctions, and market abuse.
  

Key Skills:

• Minimum 5+ years’ experience in AML/CTF and financial crime within gambling, fintech, or a regulated sector.

• Direct experience in an MLRO role or senior AFC leadership position.
• Strong knowledge of UK AML regulations, POCA, MLRs, JMLSG Guidance, and UKGC expectations.
• Proven track record of dealing with regulators, auditors, and law enforcement.
• Analytical thinker with excellent judgement and problem-solving skills.
• Confident communicator—capable of engaging across senior stakeholders, frontline teams, and external parties.
• Highly organised, able to work independently, and not afraid to challenge poor practice.
• CAMS, ICA Diploma, or equivalent AML qualification preferred.
