Gibraltar has issued iGaming licences since 1998 and around 30 to 35 B2C operators are active there today. Roles range from customer support (£22,000 to £28,000) through to senior directors (£80,000 to £120,000+). The main hiring routes are specialist recruiters Pentasia and BettingJobs, plus direct applications to major operators including Entain, Bet365, Evoke, and BetVictor.
iGaming in Gibraltar
Gibraltar issued its first remote gaming licences in 1998, making it one of the world's longest-established regulated online gambling jurisdictions. Around 30 to 35 B2C licensed operators are active on the Rock as of 2026, a figure that contracted from a peak during the 2016 to 2018 period as the sector went through significant consolidation. For a breakdown of which companies are hiring and what they pay, see our guide to iGaming companies in Gibraltar.
The sector is navigating real headwinds right now. Gibraltar's Parliament passed new gambling legislation in March 2026 to update the existing licensing framework, and industry reports indicate UK remote gaming duty rose sharply from April 2026, which puts pressure on Gibraltar-based operators whose revenue is weighted toward the UK market. Sector-watchers have also flagged redundancies at several major firms since 2024. That context is worth knowing before you apply, but it does not change the fundamental picture: iGaming remains the single largest private employer in Gibraltar, and the roles pipeline is active across all levels. Gibraltar's 15% corporate tax rate (since July 2024) and the absence of VAT continue to make it a competitive jurisdiction for operators to base staff.
Major Employers
Entain is the largest iGaming employer on the Rock, running Ladbrokes, Coral, bwin, and PartyPoker from its Gibraltar base. Other significant employers include:
- Bet365 , major Gibraltar presence since the early years of regulated online gambling
- BetVictor , Gibraltar-headquartered, one of the oldest bookmakers in the UK (founded 1946)

Types of Roles
The breadth of roles in Gibraltar's iGaming sector is one of its main draws. Most large operators are fully self-contained businesses, so the complete range of corporate functions exists locally rather than being handled from a parent company elsewhere.
Technical and product
- Software developers and engineers (front-end, back-end, full-stack)
- QA engineers and DevOps
- Data analysts and data scientists
- Product managers and UX designers
Commercial and marketing
- Marketing managers and CRM specialists
- Affiliate managers
- Content writers and SEO specialists
- Trading and odds compilers (at sportsbook operators)
Operations and compliance
- Compliance officers and AML analysts
- Responsible gambling specialists
- Customer support agents
- Payment operations and fraud analysts
- Legal counsel and regulatory affairs managers
Finance and corporate
- Financial analysts and management accountants
- Risk managers
- HR and talent acquisition
Community feedback from people working in Gibraltar consistently notes that customer support is the most common entry point for people moving to the Rock without prior iGaming experience, with well-trodden internal progression paths into compliance, CRM, operations, and product management.
Salary Ranges
The verified salary benchmarks from the Gibraltar market are:
- Customer support: £22,000 to £28,000
- Director and senior leadership: £80,000 to £120,000+
For mid-level roles, public job listings and community discussion indicate approximate ranges, though individual employers vary significantly:
- Compliance officers: broadly £40,000 to £65,000
- Marketing managers: broadly £35,000 to £55,000
- Software developers: broadly £45,000 to £75,000, with senior technical and AI-adjacent roles reaching £60,000 to £100,000+
- Data analysts: broadly £40,000 to £60,000
Most operators supplement base pay with private medical insurance, gym membership, relocation assistance, and annual flight allowances for non-local hires. On the tax side, Gibraltar operates a banded income tax system, not a flat rate: the top marginal rate under the GIBS assessment basis is 28%, with effective rates generally landing between 25% and 27% depending on the assessment method chosen. There is no VAT in Gibraltar.
How to Get Hired
Specialist iGaming recruiters
Pentasia and BettingJobs are the go-to specialist iGaming recruiters with strong Gibraltar pipelines. For the broader Gibraltar market including iGaming roles, SRGEurope and GRS Recruitment are the two most active generalist agencies. For senior and executive search, BlueRoom handles confidential Gibraltar mandates.
Direct applications and LinkedIn
Most of the major operators above maintain live careers pages on their own sites. LinkedIn is used heavily by Gibraltar-based hiring managers and in-house talent teams. The Employment and Training Board's GibJobs portal at etb.gov.gi also carries iGaming vacancies alongside public sector roles and is worth bookmarking.
Regulatory knowledge
Understanding Gibraltar's gambling licensing framework, which was updated by new legislation passed in March 2026, gives candidates a genuine edge for compliance, legal, and operations roles. Familiarity with UK Gambling Commission requirements is also valued by operators whose customer base is primarily British.
Starting out
If you are relocating to Gibraltar without iGaming experience, customer support is the realistic entry point. Salaries at that level (£22,000 to £28,000) are modest given Gibraltar's cost of living, but internal mobility is good and people who put the work in tend to move up quickly in a market this small. A £33,000 to £40,000 offer for a first role with some prior relevant experience is a reasonable benchmark to compare against, based on community discussion.
