About the Role

There’s no better time to join Sportsbet than now, just as the excitement builds toward the Spring Racing Carnival. As a Racing Trader, you’ll be part of the team that brings the energy, strategy, and thrill of racing to life.

This isn’t your standard office job. You’ll work with live markets, real-time data, and some of the country’s most iconic racing events. But you won’t be doing it alone, you’ll be backed by a supportive, collaborative team, expert training, and a culture where innovation, inclusion, and high performance go hand in hand.


What You’ll Do

  • Trade High-Profile Events: Manage pricing and trading for key race meetings, balancing precision with pace across all three codes – thoroughbreds, greyhounds, and harness.
  • Contribute Strategy: Help execute and evolve our trading strategies, using both market insight and customer behaviour data.
  • Optimise Tools & Models: Collaborate with analysts and stakeholders to improve trading models (including the Supamodel) and internal systems.
  • Support & Collaborate: Partner closely with trading operators and the broader trading team to ensure smooth operations and shared learning.
  • Champion Performance: Meet trading KPIs, stay composed under pressure, and deliver strong results across a wide range of racing events.


Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who combines a passion for racing and numbers with a calm, collaborative approach.

You don’t need to come from a wagering background , if you understand racing form, love the trackside buzz, or just have a sharp analytical mindset and want to break into the industry, this could be your moment.


You might be a great fit if you:

  • Have a solid knowledge of the racing industry or a strong interest in how racing markets operate
  • Can manage multiple tasks and make confident decisions in high-paced situations
  • Are naturally curious and strategic, and always looking for ways to improve or innovate
  • Bring experience with trading platforms or analytical tools (or are keen to learn)
  • Communicate well and enjoy working with a wide variety of people
  • Value collaboration, inclusion, and creating a positive team environment


Why You’ll Love Working Here

Along with a competitive salary and generous performance-based bonus, here’s some of our other benefits:

  • 25 days annual leave (plus flexible working options)
  • $1050 work-from-home allowance
  • Access to outstanding career development programs, including expert-led internal training and external learning opportunities
  • Onsite concierge services, free meals, social events and access to the Sportsbet Salon
  • Generous parental leave and return-to-work benefits
  • Hack Days: Participate in our hack days, where creativity and collaboration lead to exciting new ideas and projects.
