Director of Strategy & Planning

BrainRocket is a global company creating end-to-end tech products for clients across Fintech, iGaming, and Marketing. ‍Young, ambitious, and unstoppable, we've already taken Cyprus, Malta, Portugal, Poland, and Serbia by storm. Our BRO team consists of 1,300 bright minds creating innovative ideas and products. We don’t follow formats. We shape them. We build what works, launch it fast, and make sure it hits.

The Director of Strategy and Planning will be responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining a robust OKR framework that aligns all departments with the company’s strategic goals. This role will work closely with C-level executives and department heads to ensure that goals are effectively set, tracked, and adjusted, creating a unified direction for the organization. Director of Strategy & Planning will serve as the "architect of efficiency" for our global operations. This person will be the primary navigator for the company’s strategic roadmap, ensuring that our vision is translated into actionable, measurable, and highly structured plans.

We are looking for a "Human-Algorithm": someone who thinks in logic, structures, and processes, but possesses the high emotional intelligence (EQ) required to influence the Board and senior leadership. You will bridge the gap between high-level ambition and operational execution within the iGaming ecosystem.

• Demonstrated experience in developing and implementing OKR frameworks, particularly in complex and large-scale settings
• Proficiency in setting and interpreting performance metrics and turning data into actionable insights for leadership
• Proficiency in data-driven decision-making and financial modeling
• Structured mind. You see patterns where others see chaos and can create frameworks for any business challenge

• Based in (or willing to relocate to) Spain
