E Junior Recruitment is recruiting on behalf of Stats Profit, a specialist, data-driven football betting system and paid membership service.

Using historical football data dating back to 2014, Stats Profit applies predefined statistical criteria to identify qualifying home-win selections across 11 European football leagues.

Paying members receive football selections, reference odds and performance tracking information to help them follow a structured betting strategy.

Annual membership currently costs £495. The system has recorded historically profitable results, although betting carries financial risk and future profitability is not guaranteed.

We're seeking a creative, ambitious and resourceful individual to help solve one of Stats Profit's biggest commercial challenges: attracting new customers and building a sustainable paying membership base.

The business faces three significant challenges:

1. Starting Almost From Scratch

Stats Profit currently has just ONE active paying member. Despite having an established methodology and historical performance records, the business has very limited brand awareness and no substantial existing customer acquisition pipeline.

2. A Seasonal Product

Football selections are primarily available between August and May, with a summer off-season when no live selections are provided. This creates an additional challenge in attracting, engaging and converting potential customers throughout the year.

3. No Marketing Budget

There is NO separate marketing or advertising budget. The business cannot currently fund paid advertising, sponsorships, purchased leads or premium marketing tools.

The successful candidate must therefore develop and implement an organic marketing strategy using existing resources and free opportunities.

How would you build Stats Profit's audience and paying membership base organically, starting almost from scratch, with a seasonal product and no marketing budget?

We don't have a predetermined solution.

We're looking for someone capable of independently researching the business, understanding its potential customers and developing an original, commercially realistic approach.

We value fresh thinking, creativity, initiative and practical problem-solving over qualifications or years of marketing experience.

• Research and understand Stats Profit, its business model and potential customers.
• Independently develop an organic customer acquisition strategy.
• Identify and assess opportunities to attract relevant prospective customers.
• Implement, test and refine agreed marketing initiatives.
• Consider the challenges of the seasonal football calendar.
• Monitor performance and identify opportunities for improvement.
• Provide a brief weekly progress report covering activity, results and next steps.
• Ensure marketing activity complies with relevant laws and responsible gambling advertising requirements.

We're particularly interested in individuals who:

• Have a genuine passion for marketing, business growth or creative problem-solving.
• Enjoy researching specialist markets and understanding customer behaviour.
• Can develop original ideas and explain why they believe those ideas could work.
• Have strong initiative, resourcefulness and commercial awareness.
• Are confident working independently with minimal supervision.
• Can translate their ideas into practical activity.
• Are motivated by the opportunity to help build a small business.

An interest in football, statistics or betting would be advantageous but is not essential.

Previous professional marketing experience is NOT required.

Applications are welcomed from students, graduates, aspiring marketers and individuals with relevant practical experience.

Our recruitment process consists of two stages:

Stage 1 – Informal Zoom Interview

Shortlisted applicants will be invited to an informal Zoom conversation to discuss their background, interests, motivation and understanding of the opportunity.

This is an opportunity for both parties to get to know each other and explore whether the role could be a good fit.

No presentation is required at this stage.

Stage 2 – Marketing Strategy Presentation

Candidates progressing from the initial interview will be invited to deliver a 10-minute presentation.

The presentation will address the following challenge:

"With one active paying member, a £495 annual subscription, a seasonal service and absolutely no marketing budget, how would you build Stats Profit's organic audience and convert relevant interest into paying memberships?"

We want to understand your independent thinking, the reasoning behind your proposed approach, how you would implement it and what you believe could realistically be achieved.

There is no predetermined answer, and we encourage candidates to challenge conventional thinking.

This is an opportunity to take genuine ownership of a business challenge rather than simply follow a predefined marketing plan.

You'll benefit from flexible remote working, the freedom to develop and test your own ideas and the opportunity to gain meaningful commercial experience.

The initial contract will run for 3–6 months, with the potential for a longer-term opportunity depending on business needs and performance.
