Marcus Lawrence
Marcus is Head of Content at TopRatedCasinos.co.uk. Having joined as a Content Editor in 2020, Marcus has three years’ experience in the online gambling space and six years’ professional editing experience. An expert in all things online casino, he has been featured in iGamingFuture and SBC’s Payment Expert, and works hard to fact-check everything we present to our users. Outside work, Marcus is committed to regularly injuring himself at the gym and unwinding with a typically stressful West Ham game.
Having attained his bachelor’s degree in English and American Literatures from Keele University, Marcus went on to work in the B2B media industry before joining TopRatedCasinos as an Editor in 2020. In his time in the B2B industry he served as Editor-in-Chief for magazines focusing on business, tech, and sustainability, and brings his experience from the world of business ethics to the promotion of responsible gambling. When it comes to getting involved in the casino space, Marcus is particularly interested in poker and blackjack, as well as having a soft spot for roulette. He’s passionate about the positive impact that gambling affiliates can have on the prevention of negative gambling habits and practices, and works hard to ensure the site is comprehensive, up-to-date, and clear about healthy gambling principles.
Along with his work in the online casino and B2B spaces, Marcus has been featured in The Times, where he discussed the future of sustainable packaging, and on music review website Audioxide where he’s a regular contributor. He has also been featured in Business Chief, iGaming Future, the Conflict Comment, GameRant, and Raconteur.
In his spare time, Marcus enjoys the giddy highs and expected lows of being a West Ham fan, listening to as much music as humanly possible, and telling his pinky to do as it’s told whilst practising guitar. He’s always on the lookout for ways to improve his writing and the site’s approach to educating users about the UK’s best casinos and how to use them safely, all to ensure our users have the best experience possible.
