Careers
The SIS team is here to do one thing - bring the thrill and excitement of betting to life for our customers, whether it's providing a full service to a UK bookmaker or access to our data or Virtual Betting Channel to an international customer.
Our customers depend on us to provide high quality live and virtual betting opportunities, every day, 364 days per year (even the betting industry allows itself one day off per year!) And in the event of any problems, we're there to provide a solution quickly and efficiently.
It's an exciting time to be at SIS. The betting industry is changing more quickly than at virtually any time in its history and the creation of MediaCityUK in Manchester is set to change the UK's media landscape forever, which is why we're due to open an office there in 2011.
We love our industry and we're passionate about what we do. If you are too, we'd love to hear from you. See below for our latest vacancies, or why not drop a CV and covering letter to us at jobs@sis.tv.
