* Maintaining legal separation across entities to minimise liability and tax crossover
* Ensuring US entity compliance with state-specific requirements
* Auditing all US legal docs to ensure clear separation, responsibilities, and protection
Vehicle Title Verification (USA)
* Creating workflows for verifying ownership, identifying title fraud, and collecting the right documents
* Ensuring every purchase is backed by bulletproof verification
Payments & Customer Convenience
* Innovating beyond traditional bank transfers to enhance seller convenience
* Testing new payment methods like PayPal or card links
* Reducing cancellations and friction in the transaction process
CRM & Systems Revamp
* Replacing outdated CRM tools with efficient, structured solutions
* Improving tracking, handover, and relationship management across teams
Operator’s Licence Oversight
* Ensuring full self-sufficiency and long-term compliance with our company operator’s licence
Insider Risk & IP Protection
* Managing access to sensitive data and pricing tools
* Monitoring systems for suspicious activity and enforcing strong encryption policies
Procurement & Supplier Management
* Negotiating the best value from our suppliers
* Regularly reviewing service providers and ensuring operational efficiency
What We’re Looking For:
* Solid experience in risk, compliance, legal or procurement roles
* Understanding of both UK and US legal and operational landscapes
* Strong commercial awareness and negotiation skills
* Experience handling legal documentation, safeguarding concerns, and data protection
* Confidence dealing with stakeholders at all levels—from suppliers to regulators
* A methodical, strategic mindset with an eye for both detail and big-picture risk
