Day-to-day operating brief

What Trading Manager (Sportsbook) work looks like in practice

A Sportsbook Trading Manager leads traders and owns operational performance across selected sports, products or territories. Terms should define pricing strategy, margin and risk appetite, liability authority, staff competence, automated trading, feed suppliers, high-severity errors, settlement governance and integrity reporting. The manager may approve exceptional decisions within mandate but should not disguise losses through retrospective price records or weaken market controls to meet short-term turnover targets. Model governance should show who may change parameters, which markets inherit them and how rollback is tested. Staff coverage must also consider simultaneous event peaks and specialist knowledge; naming one on-call trader does not provide resilient control where several sports require live judgement at the same time.

  • Lead trading teams and coverage.
  • Set market and exposure parameters.
  • Approve exceptions within authority.
  • Oversee feeds automation and settlements.
