  • Support relationships with bookmakers, media partners, and other stakeholders to maximise commercial opportunities. 

 

Your Skillset:   

  • 2–3 years of experience in commercial or marketing roles within sport, entertainment, or digital media. 

  • Strong understanding of football and betting markets, with awareness of fan behaviour and digital trends. 

  • Proven ability to sell sponsorships and advertising inventory.
