Are you ready to join the winning team at The Lottery Corporation?

We power Australia’s biggest lottery games – and we’re one of the world’s top-performing lottery businesses. As the home of The Lott and Keno, we’re building on decades of excitement and life-changing wins, bringing our games to every state and territory except WA.

For more than a century, we’ve been playing our role in creating positive impacts by delivering winning moments every day to our people, our customers, retailers, partners and our community.

But we’re not standing still. We’re evolving into an entertainment company – more customer-obsessed, more agile and driven by real outcomes.

Because at our core, it’s simple: we create winning moments – and we’re building the next chapter as the team behind Where Australia Comes to Play.

Join us!

  • Minimum 6-8 years' experience in category management, strategic sourcing or procurement.
  • Demonstrated success in managing complex sourcing and supplier management activities.
  • Experience developing and implementing category strategies that deliver measurable business outcomes.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
