Job description

Pentasia is recruiting for a leading B2B sportsbook provider with a strong position in Asian markets. Their modular platform powers operators around the world, and the business invests heavily in product, data and personalisation.

This role is built for someone from a sportsbook trading background who wants to use that knowledge commercially. You’ll analyse trading activity and betting patterns across the client base, and advise the account management and sales teams on the promotions that grow turnover while protecting margin.

What you’ll do

• Analyse daily operation and trading reports, and explain what the numbers mean for each client
• Study betting activity and player patterns to find where a promotion can lift turnover without hurting hold
• Build promotion recommendations for individual operators and their customers, short and long term
• Track market trends and competitor offers, and propose counter strategies
• Suggest new reports and improvements to the tools used for analysis
• Work closely with account managers and sales so the advice reaches clients in a form they can act on

What you’ll bring

• Sportsbook trading operations experience with an operator or B2B provider, pre-match, in-play or both
• A solid grasp of pricing, margins, liability and how promotions affect hold
• Knowledge of several sports, with experience reaching beyond football and basketball
• Fluent Mandarin and English, spoken and written
• Confidence with data in Excel, with SQL or Power BI a plus
• Experience of Asian markets, including Asian handicap and totals, is a strong advantage

What’s on offer

• A very attractive salary, discussed openly at the first conversation
