StarCompliance, a leading provider of employee and firm compliance technology solutions, has strengthened its executive bench with two external hires and two internal promotions as it looks to capitalise on rising demand across the RegTech market.
The company has appointed Bill Chatterton as chief financial officer and Alan Knepfer as chief revenue officer, while elevating Lauren St. Amand to chief marketing officer and David Strauss to general counsel.
The reshuffle arrives at a moment of momentum for Star, which points to growing appetite for employee compliance tools, digital assets oversight, AI-enabled offerings and coverage of newer risk categories including prediction markets.
Over the last twelve months, the firm has pushed forward its product roadmap, debuting StarAssist, which embeds explainable AI into compliance workflows, and partnering with Kalshi to deliver what it describes as the financial industry’s first enterprise-grade Prediction Markets Monitoring product. It also published its first Global Compliance Benchmark Study, drawing on the views of more than 300 leaders across compliance, risk and technology.
Chatterton arrives with over two decades in senior positions at private equity-backed software and technology businesses. His CV includes the CFO post at Get Well as well as senior finance responsibilities at QuadraMed and xG Health. At Star, he will run the global finance function and support operational scale and long-term expansion.
Knepfer takes charge of the company’s worldwide revenue strategy, spanning sales, marketing, relationship management, partnerships and go-to-market execution. His 25-plus years of commercial leadership cover financial services, governance, risk and compliance, privacy and cybersecurity, most recently as chief revenue officer at Salus GRC and previously in sales leadership positions at Nasdaq, RadarFirst and Comodo Cybersecurity.
St. Amand, with the business since 2022, retains oversight of global marketing strategy, brand, communications, demand generation and go-to-market activity as Star widens its market footprint. Strauss, an eight-year veteran of the firm, continues to head the legal function, offering strategic counsel alongside governance, risk management and compliance support.
Star provides compliance technology that helps financial institutions build more connected, scalable and resilient compliance programmes as regulatory expectations and new forms of employee risk intensify.
StarCompliance CEO Jennifer Sun said, “As the regulatory landscape continues to evolve, firms are confronting increasing complexity across employee conduct, digital assets, AI governance, and emerging markets. Our continued growth reflects the critical role compliance plays in helping firms innovate while managing risk. Strengthening our leadership team positions us to accelerate innovation, deepen client partnerships, and deliver the technology and expertise our clients need to navigate what’s next.”
