If you’re a challenger in spirit and a champion in action — join us.

Why this role exists:

We are looking for a C-level leader who can set the strategic vision, build the frameworks for scale, and be a genuine business partner to the leadership team. The CLO will own the full legal and regulatory agenda: from licensing strategy and corporate structure to M&A, IP, and compliance. You will act as GR8 Tech's primary legal interface with the managing company and other group assets. This is an opportunity to build a legal function designed for the next phase of an ambitious, fast-moving international business.

What you’ll drive:

Strategy & Leadership

• Define and execute the legal function's multi-year strategy, aligned to company growth and expansion goals.

• Serve as the primary legal advisor to the board.

• Build a high-performing legal team — set clear KPIs and metrics, develop talent, and create a culture of accountability and excellence.

• Represent GR8 Tech's legal interests at the group level.

Corporate Structure & M&A

• Drive the evolution of corporate structure — optimising for regulatory compliance, operational efficiency, and strategic flexibility.

• Lead or support M&A activity: due diligence, structuring, negotiation, and integration from a legal perspective.

• Manage group-level legal entities, intercompany arrangements, and cross-border legal risk.

Commercial, Contracts & IP

• Oversee contract management across the business — drive standardisation, automation, and reduction of cycle times without sacrificing quality.

• Protect and develop the company's intellectual property portfolio: trademarks, licensing agreements, technology rights.

• Provide pragmatic legal support to commercial teams, balancing risk management with speed of execution.

Regulatory & Licensing

• Own the company's global licensing strategy — identify opportunities, manage applications, and maintain existing licences across multiple regulated jurisdictions.

• Monitor regulatory developments across target markets; translate risk and opportunity into clear, actionable positions.

• Lead the company's relationship with regulators, ensuring GR8 Tech is seen as a credible and cooperative regulated entity.

Compliance, AML & Risk

• Establish and maintain a comprehensive legal risk dashboard — identify, manage, and mitigate key risks across the business.

• Own KYC/KYB processes from a legal and regulatory standpoint; lead improvements for efficiency and compliance quality.

• Drive AML, data protection, and responsible gambling compliance frameworks in line with applicable law and best practice.

Operational Efficiency & Innovation

• Lead the adoption of legal technology and AI tools to automate routine work and increase the function's overall output and quality.

• Build a legal function metrics framework — measuring what matters and demonstrating value to the business.

• Optimise external legal spend: manage relationships with outside counsel, ensure cost-efficiency, and reduce dependency on external providers over time.

What makes you a GR8 fit:
