Compliance Operations Manager

About the role and team

Working at Uber means solving hard problems in a high-stakes, fast-moving environment. You’ll need to take ownership, stay adaptable, and build with both urgency and care. If you’re energised by challenge and motivated by real-world impact - this is where you’ll grow. You'll have the autonomy to identify what's broken, design the fix, and ship it.

As Compliance Operations Manager, you'll own the processes and programs that keep Uber's earner platform safe, compliant, and scalable. You will own initiatives end-to-end, from business case development to post-launch optimisation and work with stakeholders from Safety, Product, Policy, Supply Growth and others across the business

• Shape Strategy for Evolving Regulations: Monitor shifting ANZ gig-economy regulations and design, implement, and track operational frameworks to translate complex legal requirements into practical, scalable operations.
• Optimise Earner Onboarding & Growth: Partner directly with Onboarding and Conversion teams to embed compliance seamlessly into the earner journey, reducing friction, accelerating time-to-first-trip, and ensuring fast, reliable compliance checks.
