The Draft is our newest program to bring together people who are ready to do what they do best: work hard and play hard. We know there are plenty of tech programs out there that are pulling at your (virtual) sleeve to come work with them – and we think you’re worth all that nudging! If you’ve read up until this point, take a looksee at why we’re the most exciting place to work at this point in your career!
Whether you're a recent uni grad or have had a red hot go at the working world, we're looking to draft teammates who have an innate power to see the state of play and do things differently. You're ambitious. You're curious. You see challenges and you're not afraid to take them head-on.
Developing Australia’s most progressive data and tech capability is critical to our long-term strategy of delivering excitement for our customers.
The first cohort of players on The Draft will be placed across our data engineering, data science, commercial analytics and software engineering teams and will have immense opportunity to build their data and tech skills, get mentored by leaders across the business and build a career.
There will be four permanent role types available as part of The Draft:
Sportsbet's purpose is to bring excitement to life for its customers and we do this by overdelivering on excitement through serious fun, disrupting the status quo and living our values. From the moment you walk in the door you'll see that fun is at the heart of the way we work. We're constantly pushing the boundaries and challenging ourselves and those around us. We're genuinely passionate as we share in and celebrate each other's successes!
Working with the latest in digital technologies to solve complex problems for our customers, we invest heavily in ensuring that working with and using our products is always safe, rewarding and fun.
We are in the business of knowing what our customers want, developing the right products and delivering them to market. Getting to #1 in the App Store is no mean feat! The Tech & Product teams constantly innovate and develop ways to make our products faster, more reliable, and more attractive to our customers at the front end, whilst ensuring that everything is kept running smoothly in the background. Imagine dealing with 25k hits per second and knowing your app can stand up to the rigour!
With direct access to people leaders, business mentors, cohort buddies and program coordinators - your professional growth is our focus. Not to mention, you'll have 24/7 access to our online learning portal, "Game On", and regular performance reviews in our "Smash it for 6" platform.

Have the opportunity to share your work with fellow teammates and leadership, receive feedback and continue learning along the way.
Here at Sportsbet our values genuinely matter and they underpin our culture, how we work and are what make us unique! They are printed out on a poster and put on a wall to gather dust but rather shine through day in and day out in terms of how we engage our customers and how we interact with each other. Sometimes it is in little subtle ways and other times in more obvious gestures, but they are always in the background and in our minds underpinning everything that we do.

Sportsbet is the Australian entertainment arm of the Flutter Group. Flutter is the holding company for some of the world’s largest and most popular sports betting and gaming brands. We offer millions of customers from all over the world the most innovative and exciting experiences in our industry, as well as ongoing support and cutting-edge tools to help them play in a safe, responsible and sustainable way. Although we have the scale of a leader, our challenger mindset is what allows us to constantly explore new spaces, markets and opportunities to engage and entertain our customers.
The people at Sportsbet are a talented, curious, fun and passionate group. We always say we want our employees to enjoy themselves at work, and while keeping things light–hearted and celebrating milestones and moments that matter is part of that, it’s just as important that everyone feels valued for their contributions – which we make sure of. Our tech team is a great example of the friendly, hard–working company spirit we’re proud of. We wanted to hear more about what’s so good about daily life at Sportsbet straight from the horse’s mouths (so to speak), so we asked some of our techies to share their thoughts. Here’s what they had to say!
Our tech stack grows constantly as we innovate, reimagine, ramp up and deliver on bigger and better experiences for our customers. We’ve always got our eyes on the future.
In a world that often values “managers” more than “leaders”, Sportsbet is fostering teams where every member gets the chance to work with great leaders and be a great leader themselves, no matter their role.
Our innovations begin with the Data Science team. After all, we’re a data-driven business that lives to explore the possibilities of technology.
With one of our organisational values being ‘Our Fun, Their Fun’ — we do a pretty good job of bringing it to life.
At Sportsbet I get a perfect mix of consistency and variety. There are days spent on exciting one-off projects, and there are days of ‘business as usual.
We live to innovate at Sportsbet and that is especially true in our Data Science team!
In our Customer Experience Division, we recognise that no two teams are the same. We’re open minded with how Agile teams operate.
