Job Description

Our client, a well-established operator in the iGaming and Sports Betting sector , is looking for a Digital Designer who understands the pace, pressure, and precision this industry demands. If you can translate betting-led campaigns, promotions, and product messaging into bold, compliant, high-performing digital creative, youll fit right in.

This role sits at the intersection of marketing performance, brand consistency, and user engagement-where creative decisions directly impact acquisition, retention, and revenue.

This is not a lifestyle brand. This is high-velocity, high-stakes digital.

What Youll Be Doing:

Translating marketing briefs, promotional strategies, and product campaigns into compelling digital creative

Designing conversion-focused assets for sports betting and iGaming campaigns across web, app, mobile, email, and social platforms

Producing high-impact creatives including GIFs, carousels, stills, and motion-based assets

Creating responsive, mobile-first designs aligned to player behaviour and platform usage

Designing and animating video content for digital and social channels

Supporting promotional calendars, major sporting events, and campaign bursts

Developing and maintaining brand and campaign design guidelines

Building campaign toolkits to ensure consistent execution across all betting and gaming channels

Collaborating closely with marketing, CRM, product, and compliance stakeholders

Staying ahead of iGaming design trends, promotional mechanics, and industry best practices

Continuously improving design efficiency, quality, and creative output

What Youll Bring

Minimum 2 years experience in a digital design role, ideally within iGaming, sports betting, gaming, or a fast-paced agency environment

High proficiency in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign

Strong understanding of digital and social media formats, particularly in regulated environments

Solid grasp of responsive design, accessibility, and mobile-first principles

Clear understanding of online sports betting and/or online gaming mechanics

Exceptional attention to detail-non-negotiable in a regulated industry

Ability to deliver consistently under pressure, to tight deadlines, and around major sporting events

What Makes You a Strong Fit

You understand that in iGaming, speed, accuracy, and compliance matter as much as creativity

You take ownership and accountability for your work

Youre commercially aware and performance-driven

You collaborate easily but dont need hand-holding

You thrive in environments where priorities shift quickly

Why This Role Matters

Youll be designing for an industry where creative directly influences player acquisition, engagement, and retention. Your work will be live, visible, and measurable-every day. If youre looking for a role where design has real commercial impact, this is it.
