Our approach aims to help our people work together to maximise our collective positive impact on players, local communities and the environment. In 2023, Playtech launched its Global Benevolent Fund, an initiative to provide financial support to colleagues and their immediate families who may encounter unforeseen, severe, life-changing challenges. Since its inception in late 2023, the Fund has already supported colleagues in need, covering hardships such as losing a family member, long-term injuries and lifechanging illnesses.

So, what can you expect working at Playtech?

Each office has its own unique culture but a common thread is our commitment to employee growth and fulfilment. There is no shortage of learning opportunities, as we offer employees a range of learning and development options, including access to insightful webinars from key people across the industry throughout the year. For those looking to enhance their techskills, employees also have access to Pluralsight and their extensive library of courses and tools.

Office benefits

Each location offers its own unique perks and benefits for its local employees including a fully subsidised gym membership, daily selection of freshly made meals and hosting multiple social events throughout the year including CSR events, team building activities and local or national celebrations helping to build a strong sense of community

Charity efforts

Another integral part of Playtech’s culture is our charity efforts. Just this year, with the support of charitable foundation ‘Relief Ship’, we supported an initiative to enhance the living conditions and well-being of vulnerable and elderly people in Ukraine who have been affected by poverty and loneliness. The focus was on the ‘Elderly House – Dnipro Geriatric House’, one of the largest care homes in Ukraine, which houses 600 elderly residents with physical and mental disabilities.

The Gibraltar office also held an employee ‘pub quiz’ to raise money for individuals suffering with their mental health. While in Israel, the Playtech team helped pack school supplies for children in need. In Cyprus, the team organised a special tree planting event to raise money to support hospital patients.
