Working with Our Marketing & Creative Agency

You’ll work closely with Schoolhouse Lane, our marketing and creative agency, helping deliver high-quality campaigns and content across ITV OddsFinder and future Funteron products.

Responsibilities include:

• Acting as the day-to-day liaison between Funteron and Schoolhouse Lane.
• Preparing creative briefs.
• Coordinating design requests and marketing assets.
• Reviewing creative work and providing feedback.
• Supporting campaign planning and execution.
• Collaborating on innovative ideas to grow traffic, engagement, and brand awareness.

This provides valuable experience working with both a fast-growing technology company and an experienced external creative agency.

Global Growth & Media Partnerships

As Funteron expands internationally, you’ll have the opportunity to support our global growth strategy and future media partnerships.

You’ll be involved in:

• Supporting relationships with current and future media partners.
• Assisting with research into new international markets.
• Preparing partnership presentations and commercial materials.
• Helping coordinate marketing activity for new product launches.
• Supporting discussions with broadcasters, publishers and strategic partners.
• Identifying opportunities to grow audiences through new media partnerships.

This offers rare exposure to international business development and commercial strategy, making this far more than a traditional internship.

Traffic Growth & Innovation

One of your biggest responsibilities will be asking one simple question: “How do we get more people using ITV OddsFinder?”

You’ll help generate and execute ideas around:

• Viral marketing campaigns.
• Influencer partnerships.
• Racing content.
• Referral programmes.
• Community engagement.
• AI-powered marketing.
• Automation.
• SEO.
• Digital PR.
• Product improvements.
• New audience acquisition channels.

We encourage creativity, experimentation and data-driven decision making. If you have a great idea, we’ll help you bring it to life.

Live Sports & Weekend Coverage

As a sports media business, some of our busiest and most exciting periods take place during weekends and major sporting events. The role will occasionally require flexibility to work weekends, particularly during major horse racing festivals, ITV Racing broadcasts and peak sporting events, when audience engagement is at its highest.

During these periods, you’ll help:

• Deliver live social media coverage.
• Monitor and optimise marketing campaigns.
• Coordinate promotional activity with partners.
• Identify opportunities to maximise traffic and audience engagement.
• Support the team during key commercial moments.

This is a fantastic opportunity to experience the fast-paced world of live sports marketing and understand how major events are planned, executed and optimised.

About You

We’re looking for someone who is:

• Enthusiastic and ambitious.
• Creative and entrepreneurial.
• Passionate about marketing and digital media.
• Organised and proactive.
• Confident communicating with partners.
• Comfortable working independently.
• Eager to learn and take ownership.
• Excited about helping build a growing business.

An interest in sport, horse racing or betting is beneficial but not essential.

Desirable Skills

Experience with any of the following would be advantageous:

• Canva
• Adobe Creative Suite
• CapCut
• ChatGPT and AI tools
• SEO
• Google Analytics
• Meta Business Suite
• Email marketing platforms
• Copywriting
• Video editing

Don’t worry if you don’t have experience with everything—we’re looking for attitude, curiosity and potential as much as technical skills.
