The Province of Nova Scotia is committed to offering a gaming industry that is well regulated, while providing tangible benefits and contributions to the province, its people, and good causes that are important to Nova Scotians. The Gaming and Operations Branch ensures gambling in Nova Scotia is socially responsible, while making reasonable profits for the government.

The Government, and ultimately the people of Nova Scotia, are the shareholders and owners of the industry.

The Branch also contributes to the Province's support of the environmental, economic and social sustainability of Nova Scotia's alcohol industry.

  • Promote awareness of policies, legislation (statutes) and regulations related to gaming operations, and provide instruction to management and staff to ensure understanding and entity-wide compliance.
  • Keep up to date on government procurement policies, practices and agreements, and ensure they are followed as required.
  • Play an advisory role in providing guidance, regulatory interpretation, training and other assistance on appropriate standards and business practices to support operations in managing their Anti-Money Laundering (AML)/Anti-Terrorist Financing (ATF) activities.
  • Play a lead role in managing and responding to periodic exams/audits and various regulatory bodies related to accountabilities.
  • Further contractual compliance and protect Government's interests in corporate and commercial transactional matters.

  • Effective leadership skills, including the ability to provide solutions and alternatives to complex issues, accomplish goals and objectives, meet deadlines and achieve specific and accurate outcomes.
  • Expertise working in a regulated environment and interpreting regulatory requirements, and the technical knowledge and skills to design and recommend a policy and monitoring framework.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills and ability to evaluate, give clear direction, and provide feedback.
  • Excellent interpersonal and collaboration skills, with ease in building and maintaining working relationships both within and external to the organization.
  • Detail oriented and an analytical mindset, with a demonstrated history of providing sound advice and accurate information.
  • Strong project management skills, including the ability to set priorities and effectively manage time and resources.
  • Working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications, including SharePoint, Excel, Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint.
