MANAGING DIRECTORS AND C-SUITE

As we noted in last year ’ s Salary Survey , a maturing igaming sector requires outstanding leadership to drive sustainable growth and value creation . With market conditions forcing companies to recalibrate after the financial impact of Covid , leaders play an essential role in navigating these challenges . Simultaneously , emerging markets such as LatAm demand a wealth of knowledge and expertise to capitalise on them effectively . Across all areas , we see experience remunerated accordingly and compensation packages reflecting the value that seasoned professionals bring to the table . Andrew Cook

ANALYTICS & SENIOR DEVELOPERS

The demand for specialised igaming expertise in analytics and senior development roles remains high , which is why we continue to see wage growth for these pivotal positions . These candidates can be difficult to identify and engage as they ’ re predominately passive and they get snapped up fast . Candidates expect to be paid the market rate and if you don ’ t someone else will . Remote or hybrid work is generally a prerequisite . Chris Gyere

LEGAL & COMPLIANCE

There have been only modest salary increases for compliance and legal professionals in the last 12 months . There has been a hiatus on hiring demand for these roles , partly due to the delays with white paper consultation relating to UKGC and partly due to overspend in this area during the pandemic . Most hiring is to replace employees rather than create new roles , especially in the UK . There is speculation that additional leaders will be required to head up more specialist teams within compliance , but until this is recorded in regulation there is apathy to create budget for this and spend potentially unwisely .
