Learning and Capability Specialist

About Us

At Sportsbet, we’re united behind our purpose to “Bring Excitement to Life” for our 2 million customers (and growing!). We do this by over-delivering through our commitment to fun, challenging the status quo and living our values. As part of the Flutter Group, we’re a global player, but in Melbourne, Sydney and Darwin we’re a tight knit group of 1,300 teammates (of which over half are in our Tech and Data Science teams!).

Our commitment to responsible gambling is genuine and demonstrated through the wide range of responsible gambling initiatives and tools.

• A strategic and practical mindset with strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills
• Familiarity with LMS platforms and an ability to draw actionable insights from data
• A collaborative, people-first approach—you enjoy co-creating solutions and enabling others to thrive
