  • Legislative and Regulatory Strategy: You will lead our legislative and regulatory strategy development and engagement in your jurisdictions and keep internal company stakeholders informed on progress toward company goals.

  • Experience & Expertise: 5+ years of experience in policy, government, and/or campaign roles with a strong grasp of politics, media and comms, the legislative process and familiarity with tech, consumer apps, and gaming issues.
  • Strong Communication: The ability to distill complex competitive and policy dynamics into short, high impact, politically attuned messaging for both internal and external audiences.
  • Exceptional Interpersonal Skills: The ability to quickly forge connections and build relationships, both internal and external.
  • Strategic Thinking at Pace and Scale: An aptitude for finding creative ways to secure wins in rapidly changing environments across multiple jurisdictions.
  • Growth Mindset: A conviction that there’s always a way through and the persistence to keep adapting until you find the right solution. Each new challenge is an opportunity not just for professional acceleration but also a chance to grow our internal culture of excellence.
  • Integrity: Ability to pass key personnel submissions and background checks as part of gaming licenses.
  • Mission-Driven: A competitive mindset and a passion for making sure consumers have access to innovative new options.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
