You will heavily partner with cross-functional Jackpot team members to deeply understand the Jackpot business, utilize data to craft or optimize media strategies, and ensure alignment across all execution tactics. You will additionally collaborate with external partners to further increase user awareness and engagement with the Jackpot product.

If your “bread and butter” is performance marketing, but you’ve expanded your expertise to cover the full marketing funnel and understand how to leverage multiple channels to drive traffic and increase conversions and sales, this may be the perfect opportunity for you! Please note: this role's location is East Cost remote. We are unfortunately unable to consider candidates outside of EST.

  • Maintained a deep understanding of Facebook Business Manager, Google Ads, and the nitty gritty of campaign management
  • Significant experience analyzing data from tools such as Google Analytics, Tableau, and Appsflyer to adjust marketing strategies and drive more conversions
  • A strong understanding of CRO

It’s a Bonus If You Have:

  • Experience running campaigns on DSP and SDK networks
  • An understanding of the gaming industry

About You:

  • You are described to be quantitative and analytical. You have a passion for using data to answer questions and enable decision-making.
  • You value accountability and easily manage multiple priorities and stakeholders to achieve business goals.
  • You have a learning mindset with willingness to embrace change, and work in a startup environment.
  • You have grit, tenacity, and what people describe to be a “get it done” mentality. You don’t believe any task is too big or too small for you
  • You are not bothered by change or shifting priorities. You’ve been described as adaptable and solutions-oriented

One of Jackpot’s core values is Lifelong Learning. We don’t believe we are ever finished products and strongly believe in growing and developing to improve ourselves. If what you’ve read so far sounds exciting but your experience doesn’t quite match what we’re looking for, we strongly encourage you to apply anyway! We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive team where everyone can feel proud to contribute to.

    • You embrace and learn from constructive conflict

About Us:

In the United States alone, over 150m people per year purchase a lottery ticket. The $100B lottery industry is one of the last major industries to allow buyers to transact digitally, with ~5% of sales coming from online transactions.

At Jackpot, we’re seeking to change that. We are looking to build the world’s most user-friendly digital lottery and online gaming platform, leading the charge in bringing this industry into the 21st century through innovation and variety. Jackpot brings verified, official state lottery tickets online, by leveraging its digital platform and proprietary technology to give customers the ability to play anytime, via a user-friendly mobile app or desktop experience.

Having recently closed a $42.5M Series A, Jackpot is backed by some of the biggest names in sports, media, and entertainment, including the Dallas Cowboys, New York Yankees, San Francisco 49ers owners' Aurum Partners, the Tish family (co-owners of the New York Giants), Detroit Venture Partners (run by Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert), and BettorCapital. In addition, the round was co-led by Accomplice and Courtside Ventures, with participation from the Kraft Group, Michael Rubin, Sapphire Sport, Haslam Sports Group, Elysian Park Ventures, Arctos Sports Partners, LionTree, Theo Epstein, Fenway Sports Group President Mike Gordon, DraftKings co-founder and CEO Jason Robins, NBA stars James Harden and Joel Embiid, NHL legend Martin Brodeur, musical artist Lil Baby, and Boston Red Sox President and CEO Sam Kennedy, among others.
