A survey carried out by BettingJobs has shown the rise of analytics departments in i-gaming is increasing the demand for experienced staff.
According to the salary survey, online gaming companies are evolving into multi-disciplinary technology, marketing and product companies where the demands are for capable and qualified staff both from within and outside the sector.
Designers, developers and IT project managers are in demand at all levels of the industry, as are experienced marketing professionals and product managers.
Fiona Hickey, director at BettingJobs, said: “The general trends from our salary survey should be viewed as being very positive for the industry. They show an industry which continues to evolve and be shaped by the technology which drives its appeal. The channel shift towards mobile has been dramatic and is sure to continue.
She added: “The transition to mobile has seen many of the major operators that we work with seek to broaden their search in terms of where they hope to find the talent to bring into their businesses. Many more of our clients are now seeking to bring in candidates with experience from outside the industry.”
