With graduate roles available in Sportsbet’s dynamic environment, participants will have the unique opportunity to work at the intersection of technology and entertainment.
“In an environment where many organisations are pulling back or eliminating graduate programs due to advancements in AI, as we often do at Sportsbet, we are going in the opposite direction and launching our 2026 graduate program,” Sportsbet’s Chief Information Officer Michael Foster said.
“Our 2026 Graduate Program is more than a job, it is a launchpad for future leaders in technology, offering mentorship, hands-on learning, and a collaborative culture in a data-rich environment.
With Sportsbet actively exploring the intersection of AI platforms and software engineering practices, graduates will get immediate exposure to cutting edge advancements in AI assisted development.
This new graduate intake will focus primarily on roles in software engineering, AI and data science. Based in Sportsbet’s Melbourne office, it offers a hybrid remote structure.
Through this initiative, Sportsbet reaffirms its dedication to innovation and diversity in the Australian technology landscape.
The program aims to equip graduates with the skills, confidence, and industry insights necessary to excel in competitive and rapidly evolving digital domains.
Applications for the 2026 intake are now open. Ambitious candidates ready to shape the future of technology within one of Australia’s leading entertainment brands are encouraged to apply.
