We recently migrated all of our customers onto our very own proprietary platform - so it's an exciting time to join us. With the help of our new platform, we're able to pioneer new products and drive more advanced, creative technologies. The result? Unrivalled experiences for millions of customers worldwide. Betfred's Technology department is driven by innovation, and you'll be at the heart of unlocking our new platform's potential. So, if you want to help shape the future of betting and gaming, then it's to time to join us. Job Purpose We are looking for an Engineering Director to help drive our ambition to be the Number 1 High Street Bookmaker. This is a senior, hands on leadership role for someone who thrives at the intersection of technology, delivery, and customer value. You will be accountable for engineering execution, technical direction, and the effectiveness of our engineering leadership team. You will work closely with Product, Delivery, and Technology colleagues to ensure engineering delivers customer value at pace, while striking the right balance between building things fast and building things right. This is a role for someone with a scale up engineering mindset: pragmatic, outcome focused, and comfortable making trade offs rather than gold plating solutions. Working in partnership with the Group CIO, you will translate strategy into execution and bring clarity, consistency, and momentum to engineering across the organisation. Job Responsibilities Engineering leadership Lead and line manage senior engineering leaders across software, platform engineering, and releases. Build a cohesive, collaborative engineering leadership team with clear ownership and shared goals. Create a culture of accountability, teamwork, and proactive problem solving. Delivery, pace, and customer value Own delivery predictability, engineering throughput, and continuous improvement. Drive measurable improvements in DORA metrics and delivery performance. Ensure engineering focuses relentlessly on delivering customer value in a 24/7, consumer facing environment. Balance short term delivery needs with long term sustainability and quality. Architecture, quality and technical direction Define and evolve a clear architectural strategy across engineering teams. Own and actively manage technical debt as a strategic investment, balancing product demand with engineering health. Ensure technical decisions support scale, resilience, and rapid change without unnecessary complexity. Engineering practices and culture Establish consistent engineering practices, standards, and ways of working across teams. Promote a culture that values ownership, pragmatism, and continuous improvement. Ensure governance and policy frameworks are applied in a way that enables delivery rather than slowing it down. Cross functional leadership Operate effectively in a highly cross functional environment, partnering closely with Product, Delivery, and TechSecOps. Act as a senior engineering voice in shaping priorities, trade offs, and execution plans. Work in close partnership with the Group CIO, acting as a trusted leader who challenges constructively and aligns teams behind decisions. What Success Looks like A cohesive, aligned Engineering leadership team with a shared sense of purpose. Clear architectural direction that teams actively follow. Improved delivery predictability, DORA metrics, and engineering momentum. Engineering teams that consistently deliver customer value at pace without sacrificing quality or security. About you Experience Senior engineering leadership experience at comparable scale. Proven accountability for engineering execution, delivery outcomes, and technical direction. Experience operating in a 24/7, consumer facing environment; regulated experience is advantageous. Technical credibility Strong grounding across software engineering, platform engineering, architecture, and engineering practices. Comfortable engaging in technical detail when required and leading pragmatic technical discussions. Able to balance speed, quality, and sustainability without dogma. Leadership style Hands on, collaborative, and low ego. Comfortable operating in a fast paced, high pressure environment. Values clarity, alignment, and outcomes over politics. This role is not for you if You are primarily a strategic or advisory leader with little recent technical engagement. You avoid delivery accountability or operational responsibility. You are uncomfortable owning outcomes in a 24/7, consumer facing environment. What's in it for you We offer a variety of competitive benefits, some of which vary depending on the role you're recruited to. Some of what you can expect in this role includes: A competitive rate of pay and pension contribution. Generous discretionary bonus schemes, incentives and competitions. An annual leave entitlement that increases with length of service. Access to an online GP 24/7, 365 days a year for you and your immediate family. Employee wellbeing support through our Employee Assistance Programme. Enhanced Maternity & Paternity Pay. Long Service Recognition. Access to a pay day savings scheme, financial coach and up to 40% of your earned wage ahead of payday, through Wagestream.

Own and actively manage technical debt as a strategic investment, balancing product demand with engineering health. Ensure technical decisions support scale, resilience, and rapid change without unnecessary complexity. Engineering practices and culture Establish consistent engineering practices, standards, and ways of working across teams. Promote a culture that values ownership, pragmatism, and continuous improvement. Ensure governance and policy frameworks are applied in a way that enables delivery rather than slowing it down. Cross functional leadership Operate effectively in a highly cross functional environment, partnering closely with Product, Delivery, and TechSecOps. Act as a senior engineering voice in shaping priorities, trade offs, and execution plans. Work in close partnership with the Group CIO, acting as a trusted leader who challenges constructively and aligns teams behind decisions. What Success Looks like A cohesive, aligned Engineering leadership team with a shared sense of purpose. Clear architectural direction that teams actively follow. Improved delivery predictability, DORA metrics, and engineering momentum. Engineering teams that consistently deliver customer value at pace without sacrificing quality or security. About you Experience Senior engineering leadership experience at comparable scale. Proven accountability for engineering execution, delivery outcomes, and technical direction. Experience operating in a 24/7, consumer facing environment; regulated experience is advantageous. Technical credibility Strong grounding across software engineering, platform engineering, architecture, and engineering practices. Comfortable engaging in technical detail when required and leading pragmatic technical discussions. Able to balance speed, quality, and sustainability without dogma. Leadership style Hands on, collaborative, and low ego. Comfortable operating in a fast paced, high pressure environment. Values clarity, alignment, and outcomes over politics. This role is not for you if You are primarily a strategic or advisory leader with little recent technical engagement. You avoid delivery accountability or operational responsibility. You are uncomfortable owning outcomes in a 24/7, consumer facing environment. What's in it for you We offer a variety of competitive benefits, some of which vary depending on the role you're recruited to. Some of what you can expect in this role includes: A competitive rate of pay and pension contribution. Generous discretionary bonus schemes, incentives and competitions.
