Nice-to-have's ⭐Exposure to email marketing campaigns / CRM initiatives ⭐Experience and exposure to the iGaming industry ⭐ Experience with Google Ads ⭐ Knowledge or experience with Progressive Web Apps (PWA) ⭐Experience working directly with clients and managing stakeholder relationships The ideal candidate is collaborative, positive, and highly proactive. They enjoy solving problems, communicating with teammates and clients, and taking initiative without needing constant direction. They're a team player with a can-do attitude and they understand that great results come from collaboration. We’re looking for someone who is collaborative, positive, highly proactive, and naturally takes ownership. You’re the kind of person who doesn’t wait to be told what to do — you spot a problem, figure out what needs to happen, and take it through to completion, while keeping the right people involved along the way. You’ll be joining a growing two-person paid media team, so being comfortable working independently is important. You should be able to manage projects with little-to-no supervision, while also knowing when to ask questions, involve others, or flag something that needs attention. We’re looking for someone who can go beyond simply executing tasks — you should be curious enough to dig into projects, identify challenges, risks, gaps and opportunities that may not be immediately obvious, and think about how things could be improved. At the same time, you won’t be working in isolation. Collaboration is a big part of the role. You’ll work closely with teammates and wider internal stakeholders, as well as clients, and project-related decisions will be made collectively rather than individually. You should enjoy exchanging ideas, communicating openly, and bringing your perspective to the table while being equally comfortable listening to others and finding the best solution together. Things won’t always be perfect or straightforward, so adaptability and resourcefulness are important. We want someone who can stay calm when faced with constraints, changing priorities or imperfect circumstances, and focus on figuring out what can be done rather than why something can’t. You naturally approach challenges with a problem-solving mindset and look for practical, thoughtful solutions rather than assigning blame. Finally, we’re looking for someone who is curious and thoughtful about AI. You should be comfortable using AI to support your research, analysis, thinking and day-to-day efficiency, while still bringing strong judgement, experience and critical thinking of your own. We’re not looking for someone who uses AI as a shortcut or lets it do the thinking for them. Instead, we value people who know when AI can add value and when their own expertise should take the lead, and who can use these tools intelligently while maintaining a high standard of original, human-led work.
