About The Position

As Senior Manager, Trading, you will be a people-first leader within Hard Rock Digital’s Pricing Origination team. Your focus will be on managing and developing a team of traders, setting high standards for performance, and ensuring the group consistently delivers accurate, competitive, and profitable markets. While our models and automation will produce the core prices, you will provide oversight, guidance, and judgment to ensure trading activity aligns with business objectives. This role requires a strong manager who can balance operational oversight with mentorship. You will coach and grow individual traders, foster a culture of accountability and innovation, and provide clear direction in a fast-paced environment. In parallel, you will work with product, quant, and engineering teams to make sure our pricing models, risk frameworks, and trading tools evolve in step with the business. You will be deeply immersed in the world of sports, acting as a subject matter expert on the trading dynamics of basketball, football, and baseball. Success in this role means more than execution — it requires identifying opportunities, understanding the evolution of game strategy, and acting upon emerging patterns to optimize our trading models. By combining a commercial mindset with collaboration and innovation, you will help shape a best-in-class sportsbook that anticipates customer needs and adapts to the ever-changing dynamics of sport. The position is primarily remote but will involve regular in-person sessions for team collaboration, training, and strategic planning. These sessions are central to building alignment, developing talent, and ensuring the Pricing Origination team functions as a high-performance unit.
