What Is ParlayJobs?
Major job sites and professional networks are crowded with stale “ghost” listings and AI-driven spam posts. Recent surveys show nearly 70% of roles on big boards stay listed for over 30 days, with around 10% remaining unfilled for half a year.
Many employers keep postings open indefinitely just to hoard applications or create an illusion of growth. The result? Job seekers waste time on positions that aren’t actually hiring, and the industry gets bogged down in noise.
ParlayJobs was created to cut through that noise. ParlayJobs is a specialized job board for sports betting careers that focuses on quality over quantity. Our platform blends powerful automation with real human curation to filter out junk listings.
Where do we source our jobs?
Unlike general job boards, ParlayJobs doesn’t rely on third-party listings for content. Our system runs 24/7 to aggregate new openings directly from top sports betting companies’ career pages and applicant tracking systems. We also accept direct submissions from employers in the industry.
This targeted approach means every job on ParlayJobs comes straight from the source. No scraped listings from other boards, no low-effort spam posts – just high-quality sports betting jobs.
This is a win–win for everyone. Job seekers see far less clutter and can trust that every role is legitimate. Employers get to showcase their openings to a focused audience without having their posts lost in a sea of unrelated jobs.
Where are your jobs located?
We primarily feature opportunities in English-speaking regions – the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and across Europe. That said, sports betting is a global industry. We’re happy to list roles from anywhere in the world as long as they’re relevant to our niche.
If you’re hiring in a location outside our usual coverage or have a unique opportunity, let us know and we’ll make sure it gets on the board.
What types of roles are available?
ParlayJobs specializes in sports betting roles (as opposed to general casino gaming jobs). You’ll find everything from entry-level openings to executive leadership positions. Our current job categories include:
- Marketing – e.g. digital marketing, affiliate management, brand partnerships
- Sports Trading – e.g. oddsmakers, traders, risk managers
- Data & Analytics – e.g. data scientists, BI analysts, statisticians
- Sports Media – e.g. content writers, journalists, on-air talent
These categories may grow as the industry evolves. If you think we should add a new category to reflect an emerging field, feel free to reach out!
Why work in sports betting?
Sports betting is a dynamic sector that combines the thrill of live sports with solid, long-term career prospects.
If you’re passionate about sports or data, this industry lets you turn that enthusiasm into a profession. Here are a few reasons a career in sports betting is worth considering:
The growth of the US market
Since key legal changes in 2018, the U.S. sports betting market has exploded. New states continue to legalize betting each year, fueling rapid expansion.
This growth means a constant need for talent and plenty of opportunity for upward mobility. If you want to grow alongside a booming market, the U.S. sector offers a fast-paced environment with huge potential.
European market
Europe boasts a mature betting ecosystem, especially in hubs like the UK, Malta, and Cyprus. Companies in Europe are well-established and offer competitive salaries.
The industry’s stability in this region provides a solid foundation for those seeking a time-tested market with reliable career options and advancement paths.
Global job opportunities
Many sports betting companies have a global footprint. It’s not uncommon for talented candidates to find opportunities for international relocation or roles that involve travel.
Some employers even offer visa sponsorship and relocation packages to attract the right people. If you’re looking to see the world while building your career, sports betting can be your ticket to international experience.
Beyond the Bookmakers
The sports betting ecosystem is much bigger than just the well-known sportsbook operators. As the industry grows, so do the companies that support it.
Sports analytics firms, sports media outlets, and specialized technology providers are all expanding alongside the betting operators.
ParlayJobs highlights roles across this entire ecosystem, from jobs at major bookmakers to positions with sports data startups and media companies. Whichever facet of the sports betting industry interests you, you’ll find opportunities here.
