• Define and monitor key marketing KPIs, including customer acquisition, registrations, first-time depositors, conversion rates, CPA, retention, customer value and brand awareness;
• Develop and execute integrated marketing plans across brand, media, performance marketing, CRM, affiliates, sponsorships and partnerships;
• Manage the local marketing budget, ensuring efficient investment allocation and maximum return on investment;
• Lead the planning and localisation of campaigns, ensuring all creative assets resonate with Swedish audiences and reflect local market dynamics;
• Collaborate with HQ teams to optimise product positioning, customer experience and promotional strategies for the Swedish market;
