Senior Analyst

Our client, a leading company within the iGaming industry, is seeking a Senior Analyst to provide hands-on analytical and financial support across multiple brands, partnerships, M&As, and joint ventures. This role focuses on execution rather than strategy, combining commercial analysis with financial planning and performance evaluation. The successful candidate will model business performance, assess joint venture and M&A feasibility, and contribute to budgeting and forecasting processes.

Working closely with decision-makers, you will deliver accurate, data-driven insights that support commercial planning, investment evaluations, and ongoing business performance across a dynamic, data-led iGaming environment.

This position is ideal for someone who enjoys being deeply involved in analytical detail, takes pride in producing precise, actionable results, and prefers a hands-on analytical role rather than a people management position.

Operational and Analytical Support

• Collaborate with marketing, finance, product, and operations teams to provide data-backed inputs for planning and performance reviews.
• Continuously improve data flows, reporting processes, and model accuracy, introducing automation where possible.
• Translate complex datasets into clear, actionable insights tailored for non-technical stakeholders.
• Ensure all data, models, and reports meet high standards of accuracy, consistency, and reliability.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a quantitative or business-related field (Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Statistics, or Data Science), or equivalent practical experience.
• Proven experience in commercial or financial analysis, ideally within the iGaming, digital, or technology sectors, with exposure to M&A or partnership evaluation.
• Experience supporting forecasting, budgeting, or financial reporting processes.
• Advanced proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets for modelling, forecasting, and scenario analysis.

This is a hands-on analytical role where your work directly supports investment, commercial, and financial decisions. You will model joint venture and M&A feasibility, enhance financial reporting, and contribute to a more data-driven business environment.

If you enjoy combining commercial analysis with financial insight and prefer detailed, high-quality execution over management then this position offers a rewarding opportunity to make an impact.
