About Fortuna Gaming
Fortuna Gaming is a specialist digital marketing agency based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, dedicated to the online gaming and betting industry. We provide digital marketing services to client brands, including Ivy Casino, O'Reels and Rose Casino. As we continue to grow, we are expanding our team to ensure our clients meet their regulatory obligations, particularly in Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Enhanced Customer Due Diligence (EDD).
Overview
We're looking for an ambitious AML/EDD Analyst to join our growing compliance team in Newcastle. This role is a fantastic entry point for someone looking to build a career in compliance and the online gaming sector. You'll be given the tools, training and support to develop your expertise in one of the most regulated and fast-moving industries.
You don't just get a job here - you get the chance to grow with us. From day one, you'll be working alongside experienced compliance professionals, gaining hands-on exposure to real-world AML/EDD processes and learning how regulatory frameworks apply in practice. Over time, there's scope to progress into more senior compliance roles, shaping how our clients manage risk and meet their obligations.
Responsibilities

● Escalate complex AML cases to the Compliance Manager (AML/EDD) and/or Head of Compliance with clear summaries and evidence.
● Update customer financial vulnerability limits based on verified data.
● Prepare AML and risk monitoring reports.
● Support the collation of information for regulatory audits.
● Handle sensitive client and customer data securely in line with the Data Protection policy.
● Contribute to additional compliance-related tasks as directed by the Compliance Manager (AML/EDD) and Head of Compliance.
Experience and Skills
● Previous experience in compliance, AML, or risk is an advantage but not essential - we value drive and willingness to learn.
● An interest in the gambling sector or financial compliance.
● Understanding of UK KYC/AML regulations (training will be provided).
● Strong organisational and time management skills.
● Confidence to make decisions with the support of the compliance team.
● Excellent attention to detail and analytical mindset.
● Clear communication skills, both written and verbal.
● Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel.
What We Offer

● Ongoing training and mentorship from experienced compliance professionals.
● Hands-on experience working with leading online gaming and betting brands.
● A collaborative, supportive team environment where learning is encouraged.
● A central Newcastle city centre office with excellent transport links.
● Opportunities for performance related bonuses.
● Pension Scheme.
● Relaxed work environment with casual dress.
● Flexible working hours.
● 23 days annual leave + bank holidays (plus 1 extra day for each years' service).
