A little bit about us

Atlantic Lottery

Our players have been having fun and "dreaming big" since 1976 when Atlantic Lottery started offering lottery games on behalf of the governments of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador and Prince Edward Island. The game options have grown and changed over the years and so has our workforce! Today our more than 600 employees are the heart and soul of our business. We offer everything from draw games to online bingo; breakopen tickets to sports wagering; and games in social settings and on the internet. With games come winners—big and small wins every day—but the best thing about lottery games is that when you choose to play with us, everyone benefits. 100% of our profits go back into our communities. That feels good! #ProudToBeAL

We are proud, gritty, community-minded, and punch above our weight. Being Atlantic Canadian means we work hard and we know how to have fun. It also means that we genuinely care for each other as co-workers, neighbours, and friends.

Your best life is waiting in Atlantic Canada. At Atlantic Lottery, we have many roles that allow you to work from any of our four Atlantic provinces. Explore living East :
