As a Digital Marketing Link-Building Outreach Executive at Receptional you'll be contributing to live client campaigns from day one, working under the guidance of a Senior Outreach Specialist on some of the biggest names in sports betting and casino.

What you do need is strong written communication, genuine curiosity about digital marketing and the iGaming sector, and the kind of self-motivated approach that doesn't wait to be told what to do next. The work is detail-oriented and deadline-driven, so organisation and attention to detail matter as much as creativity here. Essential: Strong written communication skills — you craft clear, engaging messages that get responses High attention to detail and strong organisational skills — nothing slips through the cracks on your watch Comfortable working with data, spreadsheets, and tracking tools Self-motivated with the ability to manage your own workload and meet deadlines consistently A genuine interest in iGaming, digital marketing, or SEO — curiosity about the sector goes a long way here Comfortable using AI tools to support outreach and content tasks Desirable: Some exposure to SEO, link-building, or digital PR — internships, personal projects, or academic work all count Basic awareness of the iGaming industry and its regulatory landscape Familiarity with tools such as BuzzStream or Ahrefs A degree in Marketing, Journalism, English, or a related discipline — or equivalent experience How you'll be measured Prospect list output against weekly targets, consistency of outreach volume and response rate tracking, contribution to the team's monthly link acquisition targets, quality of placements and content meeting client and publisher standards first time, and deadline adherence across all tasks and deliverables. £25,000 - £27,000 depending on experience.
