We aim to create unrivalled moments of excitement in people’s day-to-day lives by developing state-of-the-art technology and products that provide fun, fair, and safe online betting and gaming entertainment to customers around the world. 

This team is experienced. Not only has 888 been at the forefront of the online gaming industry since 1997, we’ve done so by leveraging our proprietary technology to create an innovative, world-class online experience every time our services are used. Already owning several gambling brands and websites including 888sport, 888poker, and 888casino, our company is always looking to grow! 

Here’s an example of that. In 2021, 888 launched an exclusive partnership with Authentic Brands Group, owner of the iconic Sports Illustrated brand, to launch its latest B2C brand, SI Sportsbook.  

That’s right. Sports Illustrated has a sportsbook. And we are building the only sportsbook by sports people! 

SI Sportsbook offers a unique, content-rich sportsbook tailor-made for sports fans in the US. A generation of sports fans came of age and fell in love with the magic of sport through the iconic imagery and journalism for which Sports Illustrated is best known. SI Sportsbook taps into the deep well of emotion, brand recognition, and appeal of this quintessential American sports brand. 

We don’t stop there, though. In addition to building our consumer-facing sportsbook, 888 manages several ground-breaking B2B partnerships with Caesars and World Series of Poker. 

888 offers an exciting and dynamic work environment with flexible work-from-home policies, a generous benefits package, and unparalleled growth opportunities for employees. Our US business operates as a separate entity with a series of matrixed support layers so our employees can tap into the global resources at their disposal. It is very much a start-up culture at 888’s New York and New Jersey offices, and we value and appreciate employees who bring a strategic mix of flexibility, domain knowledge, and curiosity to their roles. 

A working knowledge, or passion for sports and betting are a huge plus for potential candidates. 888's consumer-facing websites offer more than just online betting and gaming. They are entertainment destinations: places where people can enjoy a truly interactive experience and be part of an online community that shares common interests. 888's strong and trusted brands are all accessible through www.888.com.
