Our company’s history is here in the heart of Sunderland. We’re proud to be here and of the passionate, loyal people we have here.
Our staff can build a successful, highly skilled tech career with us and since we’re a cloud-based business, our developers based here in the North East can easily work closely with our international teams.
We’re connected to our local community and want to continue to have a positive impact on the city. The work-life balance that the region offers is important to all of us as well, alongside the opportunity for the company and our staff to be a part of the really strong tech community we have here in the North East.
We have really strong universities in the North East and the key to our future success is the students coming out of them. They’re our future talent pipeline and mean that we can continue to grow.

The business specialises in developing and building high quality online entertainment, backed by its ethos of responsibly providing affordable, community-focused content. tombola operates in the UK, Spain, Italy and Gibraltar, with further expansion into other regulated markets planned for the near future.
The vast majority of tombola’s 450 strong workforce is based at its Sunderland headquarters, where the team develops and builds all software and content in-house.
