Our work bridges three domains, each challenging in its own right - iGaming, quantitative research and software development.

As a Football Trader, you will monitor and manage betting markets, analyse live football data, and make decisions to optimize trading outcomes. This role combines a strong mathematical aptitude with a deep understanding of football dynamics. Prior trading experience is not required but will be considered a plus.

You will be expected to work over the weekend during football season and at least 2 evening shifts (finish past 10:30 pm).

This role will reward individuals who are curious, hungry for learning and value attention to detail.

  • Collaborate with analysts to refine trading models and improve market predictions.
  • Maintain focus and accuracy in high-pressure, fast-paced environments, particularly during live matches.
  • Stay informed about football leagues, teams, players, and trends to gain a competitive edge.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

  • Strong mathematical background (degree in Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Engineering, or a related field preferred).
  • Comprehensive knowledge of football, including leagues, teams, and strategies.
  • Strong analytical skills and attention to detail.
  • Ability to make quick decisions under pressure.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and/or basic data analysis tools.

Desirable:

  • Experience with statistical programming languages (e.g., Python, R).
  • Knowledge of betting markets or prior experience in a trading environment.
  • Understanding of predictive modeling and probability theory.
  • Passion for football analytics and/or sports betting.

Benefits

  • Salary depending on experience.
  • Annual discretionary performance bonus.
  • Comprehensive training in trading strategies, market dynamics, and tools.
  • Opportunities for career growth in a dynamic and exciting industry.
  • A collaborative work environment surrounded by football enthusiasts and data experts.
  • Flexible working hours, particularly during the football calendar.
  • 25 days holiday per annum, plus UK bank holidays.
  • Private health & dental insurance.
  • Optical cover through Aviva.
  • Pension plan.
  • Gympass membership to over 1900 gyms and wellness businesses.

Why it works

3×

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.
