Job Description

About the Hiring Company:

We are looking for a highly driven, hands-on Marketing & Brand Manager to lead growth across our iGaming platforms in the Philippines and regional markets.

This role is ideal for someone who not only understands the local digital landscape—SEO, paid media, social platforms, affiliates, and KOL/influencer ecosystems—but also has bold, disruptive ideas they’ve been waiting for the right platform to execute. We’re looking for a builder and a challenger—someone who sees opportunities others miss and is ready to turn unconventional thinking into real market impact.

You will be responsible for executing both performance-driven campaigns and breakthrough marketing strategies that cut through a highly competitive space.

You will play a key role in launching and scaling brands within a PAGCOR-regulated environment, balancing compliance with aggressive, creative growth.
