About Us

At Sportsbet, we’re united behind our purpose to Bring Excitement to Life for over 2.4 million customers. We do this by delivering fun, challenging the status quo, and living our values. As part of the global Flutter Group, we’re a major player internationally, but in Melbourne, Sydney and Darwin, we’re a tightknit team of 1,300+ teammates (with over half in Tech & Data Science).

Our commitment to responsible gambling is genuine and demonstrated through the wide range of responsible gambling initiatives and tools. We’re proud to be the leaders in responsible gambling in our industry, not just locally, but globally.

We are one of the top workplaces for Women through WORK180. WORK180 is a leading platform that independently assesses employers on policies, benefits and practices that support women and underrepresented groups at work. We remain committed to making Sportsbet the best place to work and encourage you to explore our employer profile on the WORK180 website to learn more about what we offer.

About The Role

Reporting into our newly appointed Chief Product Officer, this is one of the most influential Product leadership roles at Sportsbet. As our General Manager of Product, you'll lead the strategy, prioritisation and delivery of one of Australia's most sophisticated and fast-moving product portfolios. The successful candidate will shape how millions of customer interactions come to life across Racing and Sports, ensuring we continue to deliver market-leading experiences that are fast, personalised and loved by our customers.

You'll lead a high-performing team of 23, through 3 direct reports and as a member of the CPO's leadership team,



you'll play a pivot role in shaping the new Product division and making the right calls for Sportsbet as a whole. Working closely with Technology, Design and senior leaders across Sportsbet and Flutter, you'll drive customer-centred innovation, embed modern product practices and champion the adoption of AI to accelerate how we discover, design, build and optimise products.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities Include:

- Define and execute a bold product strategy that strengthens Sportsbet's market leadership and delivers meaningful value for both customers and the business.
- Lead the Product portfolio and roadmap, making clear investment decisions and prioritising opportunities that create the greatest impact.
- Embed world-class product management practices across the full product lifecycle, from customer discovery through to launch, measurement and optimisation.
- Partner deeply with Technology, Design and cross-functional teams to improve product delivery, accelerate innovation and unlock the potential of AI across the product development lifecycle.
- Build, coach and inspire a high-performing Product organisation known for outstanding leadership, capability and culture.
- Build Safer Play into every product decision and partner with Risk and Compliance to navigate a energetic regulatory environment.





This is a high-impact GM-level Product leadership opportunity for someone who can inherit a strong team and take it to the next level. The mandate is less about fixing fundamental Product capability and more about defining the next chapter of Product at Sportsbet – particularly through AI-enabled product delivery, a clear Product vision and strategy, stronger enterprise collaboration, and continued development of a high-performing team.

About You

While we are big on development and offer on the job training, we want to set you up for success. Along with proven Product executive experience leading large product portfolios in rapid-paced, digitally-led businesses, it would be ideal that you have:

- Strong strategic thinking, portfolio management and prioritisation capabilities, with a track record of delivering measurable business impact.
- Experience working across Product, Technology, Product Design, Marketing and Commercial teams to bring products to market successfully.
- Passion for modern product practices, innovation and leveraging emerging technologies, including AI, to improve outcomes.
- A relevant degree or equivalent practical experience, combined with a demonstrated ability to take ideas from concept through to delivery and optimisation
- An enterprise mindset: you put the best outcome for Sportsbet ahead of any one team

You'll need to be comfortable making big calls, challenging the status quo and driving change with confidence, even when navigating ambiguity.

The Perks

We work hard and play hard, so along with a competitive salary and generous performance-based bonus for permanent staff members, here’s some of our other perks:

- 25 days annual leave (that’s right, an additional week’s leave)
- Hybrid working policy (
