👀 The Role
Title: Head of Audit and Risk
Team: Legal
Location: Gibraltar, full-time on-site
The Head of Audit and Risk will build Midnite’s group-wide internal audit and Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) function from the ground up. Sitting within Legal and reporting to the VP of Legal, with a dotted line to Compliance leadership, the role will retain the Board-level exposure and independence needed to audit teams across the organisation. This is a global remit, including Canada as it comes online, and requires someone who can set the strategy while remaining hands-on with delivery.

You will:

• Develop and execute a risk-based internal audit plan across operational, technical, financial, and regulatory domains
• Deliver objective audit reports, root-cause analyses, and remediation tracking to the Board and Leadership team
• Run targeted audits on high-risk gambling domains (RNG fairness, player funds, bonus abuse, payments, affiliates)
• Maintain and evolve ERM frameworks, risk registers, and operational risk appetite standards
• Ensure practices align with Gibraltar Gambling Commissioner requirements and other regulators (UKGC, MGA)
• Independently audit AML/CTF, KYC, and Responsible Gambling frameworks with Compliance and the MLRO
• Evaluate vendor risk, platform reliability, data privacy practices, and IT security protocols
• Partner cross-functionally to strengthen controls and proactively mitigate risk

The next Midniter:

• Has 5+ years senior audit leadership experience within online gambling / iGaming
• Has deep knowledge of Gibraltar gambling regulation and international compliance regimes (UKGC, MGA)
• Has a recognized audit/accounting/risk qualification (CIA, ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CISA, IRM)
• Has a track record reporting to Audit Committees / Boards and senior stakeholders
• Can operate independently with high integrity and clear judgement
• Has strong communication, negotiation, and report-writing skills
