Editor-in-Chief, UK casino reviews
Manchester, United Kingdom · 14 years' experience · james@gamblingchiefs.com
James has worked in UK regulated gambling since 2012, first as a compliance analyst inside a UKGC-licensed operator, where he handled licence-condition reporting, source-of-funds checks and marketing sign-off, and since 2019 as an editor covering the same industry from the outside.
He owns Gambling Chiefs's brand review programme: he opens each account personally, deposits his own money, plays through the welcome offer under its published terms and records the withdrawal end to end. Where an operator's stated payout window and the tested window disagree, the tested figure is what appears on the page.
James signs off every UK licence number against the Gambling Commission public register before publication and re-checks enforcement history each quarter.
