• Third-Party Feed & Product Optimization: Oversee how the team manages, assesses, and optimizes third-party odds and data feeds, resolving escalated feed issues and ensuring bespoke pricing is created where required.
• Competitive Benchmarking & Product Input: Review each Sport Owner's competitor benchmarking for pricing competitiveness, market uptime, and feature parity, and consolidate findings to shape roadmap priorities with product, quant, and trading management.
• Analytical Ability & Reporting: Ensure the team produces data-driven analysis identifying value leaks, inefficiencies, and improvement opportunities, and compile these into reporting for senior management.
• Mentorship & Team Contribution: Coach and develop junior and mid-level traders directly, and ensure Sport Owners are sharing best practice in bookmaking, modelling, and risk principles across the wider desk.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as the primary point of contact between the team's Sport Owners and product, quant, technology, and operations partners, ensuring insights and requirements flow both ways.
