Sandton, South Africa Initiate International Full time

Overview Legal Compliance Specialist - (iGaming and Sports Betting) Our client is a trailblazer in the global iGaming and Sports Betting industry — an innovative, fast-scaling business driving entertainment, technology, and responsible gaming excellence across international markets. They operate at the intersection of creativity and compliance, bringing together dynamic brands, high-performance teams, and a commitment to integrity in everything they do. They’re seeking an accomplished Compliance & Legal Specialist for a 3–6 month fixed-term contract (Permanent Option) to strengthen governance frameworks, manage licensing activity, and maintain full compliance across multiple regulated territories. This is a high-impact opportunity to work with a forward-thinking organisation in online gaming where precision meets pace and compliance sits at the heart of strategy. The Role As the Compliance & Legal Specialist, you’ll play a central role in shaping and protecting the business’s regulatory position as it expands globally. You’ll oversee a range of compliance functions—from licensing and reporting to marketing and affiliate oversight—ensuring the company remains compliant, ethical, and audit-ready across all operations. You’ll partner closely with leadership, legal, and risk teams to embed a culture of proactive compliance and operational excellence. Key Responsibilities Oversee the company’s compliance obligations across multiple jurisdictions, ensuring all regulatory requirements are met. Monitor and interpret new gaming legislation and regulatory updates, especially from major authorities such as the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) and the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC). Manage licensing applications, renewals, and ongoing reporting requirements. Ensure affiliate and marketing compliance, safeguarding brand reputation while supporting growth and engagement strategies. Conduct internal risk assessments and audits, identifying gaps and implementing effective remediation measures. Collaborate with internal stakeholders to develop and maintain strong AML, KYC, and responsible gaming frameworks. Draft, review, and enhance internal policies and procedures, ensuring they reflect the latest industry standards. Partner with senior leadership to advise on compliance strategy and business readiness in emerging markets. Who You Are A qualified professional with a degree in Law, Business Administration, Compliance, Accounting, or a related discipline. Bring a minimum of 3 years’ compliance experience within the regulated iGaming or Sports Betting industry — this is essential. Deep understanding of licensing processes, risk management, and operational governance in a global gaming environment. Hands-on experience working with MGA, UKGC, or equivalent licensing bodies. Proven track record in marketing and affiliate compliance — ensuring player protection and adherence to responsible gaming principles. Detail-oriented, analytical, and unflappable under pressure. An excellent communicator, capable of influencing across departments and presenting complex information clearly. Self-motivated, proactive, and commercially aware, with a strong ethical compass. Why This Role Stands Out Join a global innovator in iGaming and Sports Betting — a brand that combines agility, creativity, and compliance discipline to lead the market. Gain exposure to international operations, complex regulatory frameworks, and multi-brand management. Collaborate directly with senior executives and decision-makers shaping the company’s global expansion strategy. Contribute to a business that values compliance as a driver of long-term sustainability — not just a checkbox exercise. A contract with purpose — offering flexibility, autonomy, and the chance to make a tangible impact in a short timeframe. How to Apply If you’re an experienced compliance professional with deep iGaming or Sports Betting expertise and thrive in an environment where precision meets innovation, we’d love to hear from you. Submit your CV, a focused cover letter, and any relevant examples of compliance initiatives, frameworks, or projects you’ve led within the industry. This is your opportunity to join a forward-thinking, high-performance organisation at the cutting edge of the iGaming and Sports Betting world. Bring your legal insight, your regulatory expertise, and your drive to keep innovation compliant — and help shape the next chapter of a global success story.
