This position works as part of the Corporate & Regulatory Affairs Department, interacting with other internal and external stakeholders.

What you will bring to the role: 

• Qualifications in a relevant discipline or demonstrated experience in undertaking assurance or compliance activities
• High level of writing and communication skills with the ability to draft and edit concisely and accurately
• Strong computer literacy, particularly with Word, Excel and SharePoint, and the ability to learn new software quickly.
• Excellent organisational skills and very high attention to detail

Ideally, you’ll also bring prior experience within the gaming sector or other highly regulated industries as well as experience dealing with auditors.

What you can expect from us: 

• Free Parking onsite and free daily staff meal from our onsite staff canteen (at designated venues)
