About us:
We are Allwyn UK, part of the Allwyn Entertainment Group - a multi-national lottery operator with a market-leading presence in Austria, the Czech Republic, Greece, Cyprus and Italy. We have been officially awarded the Fourth Licence (10 year licence) to operate the National Lottery starting February 2024.

We've developed ground-breaking technologies, built player protection frameworks, and have a proven track record of making lotteries better. Our aim is to create one of the UK's most inclusive organisations - where people can bring the best of themselves, to do their best work, every day, for the benefit of good causes.

Allwyn is an Equal Opportunity Employer which prides itself in being diverse and inclusive. We do not tolerate discrimination, harassment, or victimisation in the workplace. All employment decisions at Allwyn are based on the business needs, the job requirements, and the individual qualifications. Allwyn encourages applications from individuals regardless of age, disability (visible or hidden), sex, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief and marriage and civil partnerships.

While the main contribution of the National Lottery to society is through the funds to good causes, at Allwyn we put our purpose and values at the heart of everything we do. Join us as we embark on a once-in-a-lifetime, largescale transformation journey to build a bigger, better, and safer National Lottery that delivers more money to good causes.

Role Purpose:
We are looking for an experienced and commercially-focused finance analyst business partner to support the Capex Finance Business Partner/Capex Finance Manager on reviewing, analysing and reporting on capital projects from around the business. This is a role that will work across finance (Commercial Finance and Financial Accounting) and also face out into the business, ensuring that Capex projects are appropriately understood in terms of costs, timelines, appropriate accounting, risks and opportunities etc. For the right candidate, this role will offer the opportunity to work collaboratively with the project teams and have financial oversight of a number of Allwyn projects.

Role Responsibilities:

• Support the Capex Finance Business Partner/Capex Finance Manager in providing financial oversight of capital projects around the business
• Make sure financial assumptions are captured, understood by stakeholders and forecasts developed/ risks and opportunities tracked
• Support robust reporting on projects using data from SAP/SAC and Excel, ensuring consistency and appropriateness of the data
• Communicate appropriately within Finance so that other Finance Business Partners and Finance Management are appropriately consulted or informed on capital topics
• Collaborate with Financial Accounting to ensure correct accounting treatment for projects
• Provide financial support and guidance to project for queries of an ad-hoc nature.
• Support specific capital projects with financial responsibility

Company

Our vision is to grow the National Lottery responsibly, making itbigger,betterandsafer for all, with more to good causes.

Bigger because we will significantly increase Good Causes contributions by the end of the Fourth Licence through responsible growth of people playing.

Better because we will modernise technology and operations, refresh games and support shops while improving the use of data and digital.

Safer because participant protection underpins everything we do.

What is unique about us?

Our preparations to transform the National Lottery will be a once-in-a-lifetime type of project in the lottery industry, anywhere in the world. Join our journey to create a new experience for the National Lottery and help us to power change for the greater good.

Our approach

In Allwyn, the National Lottery will have an operator that has social value at its heart. We will raise more funding for Good Causes, while running our own business in an environmentally and socially responsible way. That’s why we have committed to an ambitious Social Value framework, which is woven into the way we do business. We believe that lotteries must serve everyone across society, not just those who play. So whether as an employee, a supplier, a retailer or any of the stakeholders that we interact with, we will be powering good across the UK.

Our goal is to create one of the UK’s most inclusive organisations – where people can bring the best of themselves, to do their best work, every day, for the benefit of good causes.

We are working to make the National Lottery truly accessible in a safe way, whether as a player, a retailer or an employee. We are proud to have been a partner with Purple since 2021 to support our work to embed accessibility into everything we do. Purple has carried out an accessibility audit on our office in Watford, is working with us to have truly inclusive workplace policies, and we have exciting plans to do so much more to make our games, both in-store and online, safely accessible.

Come and help us shape what the future of the National Lottery could look like.

“I became an amputee in 2021 and I struggled to find my place back in the working world until Allwyn welcomed me with open arms. They have always focused on what I bring to the table and it is apparent that my disability is not what defines me within the company, but my skill. Allwyn has a noticeable strong focus on accessibility and inclusion, which makes me feel seen and like I have found a permanent home for my career.”Lorna Jeanes, Transition Co-ordinator.
