What you’ll be doing :

As a Trading Executive, you’ll support the day-to-day operation of our sports book and racing products, helping to monitor markets, manage trading activity, and ensure a competitive customer offering across a broad range of sporting events. You’ll assist with managing pricing, liabilities, and customer risk, while closely monitoring market movements, competitor activity, and industry trends to help inform trading decisions and optimise performance.

A key part of the role will involve analysing trading data and performance metrics to identify opportunities to improve turnover, margin, and customer engagement.
