Anyone reading my blog knows my passion and respect for behavioral economics and consumer behavior, I consider these fields key to successful business. Putting my money where my mouth is, I am now recruiting a consumer behavior product manager to join my free to play team on the Isle of Man. This position will be critical as we continue to grow the free to play (social/mobile) gaming team at PokerStars and will have tremendous influence on our products.
For those not familiar with PokerStars, we are the largest real money poker company in the world, with over 70 percent market share. Last year, we generated over $1.1 billion in revenue and more importantly EBITDA (profits) of $524 million; a far cry from the struggles of most of my colleagues’ companies in the mobile and video game spaces. I lead the free to play team at PokerStars, which has seen tremendous growth in the last couple of years and has over 500,000 daily active players.
If you or a friend are interested in the consumer behavior position, send me a note at lloydm at pokerstars.com or apply directly to the job description. It will be a lot of fun. And for those who are not good at following HTML links, click below to get to the job description:
