Reporting to the Senior Manager – Operational Risk, you’ll play a key hands‑on leadership role — managing front‑line teams, ensuring quality, handling escalations, and driving operational excellence across our growing Canadian hub. You’ll mentor and develop supervisors and analysts, oversee daily workflows, and ensure operational delivery aligns with company standards and regulatory expectations.

This role requires a strong people leader who thrives in a fast‑paced environment, balancing tactical problem‑solving with strategic improvement initiatives. You’ll champion best practices, maintain high‑quality outputs, and promote a culture of accountability, customer focus, and compliance.

What are we looking for?

- 2+ years’ experience in operational management within online gaming, payments, or fintech.

- Proven team leadership experience in Fraud, KYC, EDD AML, or Responsible Gaming operations.

- Strong understanding of regulatory frameworks and risk controls.

- Demonstrated experience managing escalations and maintaining quality in a fast‑paced, high‑volume environment.

- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

- Hands‑on, detail‑oriented, and proactive approach to problem solving.

Desirable

- Experience working in multi‑jurisdictional or multi‑brand operations.

- Knowledge of Canadian regulatory landscape for gaming or payments.

- Certifications such as CAMS, ICA, or equivalent compliance/risk qualifications.

What’s in it for you?

We offer our employees more than just competitive compensation. Our team benefits include:

- Competitive pay and benefits

- Flexible vacation allowance

- Flexible work from home or office hours

- Startup culture backed by a secure, global brand

- Opportunity to build products enjoyed by millions as part of a passionate team
