Due to the Flutter Entertainment Inc International Divisions extensive, and growing, international presence and the related increase in complexity and exposure to worldwide sanctions regimes, we are looking for a Sanctions Manager to join our established Legal, Risk & Compliance function. You’ll report to the Head of Anti-Bribery and Corruption, and work closely with the Group MLRO and the Third Party Due Diligence team. The ABC team sits within the Legal & Risk Function.

The Head of Anti Bribery & Corruption has oversight of a very busy team and we would be looking for you to assist them in delivery of the ABC Programme in addition to your Sanctions role.
“The Anti Bribery & Corruption team at Flutter International is led by experts in their field, passionate about the effective application of their craft, with the full support of senior leaders. With worldwide coverage and access to all areas of the business, working with this team is exciting, challenging and the place be to learn new skills and develop existing ones.”, Emma Christie, Legal & Compliance Department
Why we need you
You’ll be working to develop, implement and maintain Sanction policies, procedures and guidance; coordinate training and communication with staff and senior management across the International Division, completing the annual Sanctions Risk Assessment and changing the Programme where required to adapt to changing business, sector, legal and regulatory notices.
The role entails drafting and updating policies, procedures and training relating to the Sanctions Compliance Program; conducting periodic review and updating of the compliance framework.
Operationally, you will be subject matter expert and therefore adviser to other teams within Compliance on Sanctions matters, but also adviser to business teams, advising on special projects and responsible for delivery of implementing programs to comply with new legal and regulatory initiatives related to sanctions compliance. You will also lead any Sanctions reporting, direct external counsel teams in any required disclosures or request for licenses and maintain a register of all actual or potential breaches.
You should expect to be reviewing third party due diligence, assessing contracts for appropriate regulatory clauses, working with Treasury to assure Banking partners as to the extent and robustness of our sanctions compliance programme; and be ready to report, upon request, to management on the sanctions risk profile of the International Division.
Who we’re looking for
You’ll be someone with relevant international or multi-jurisdictional experience in running and maintaining a Sanctions & Export Control programme; with a solid grasp of US OFAC, EU and HM Treasury requirements and other key regimes, with the skills to translate technical sanctions language into business applicable guidance and advice. This is a role currently split evenly between procedural development and roll out and operational review of potential matters and advisory. We’ll expect you to be a well organised individual who works unsupervised in planning and prioritizing your own work, with the ability to handle large workloads to meet deadline pressures and of course, you’ll have excellent attention to detail with the ability to deliver high quality work and maintain records of work conducted on which the company may need to rely.
