To keep the momentum alive with the latest additions of new gaming products along with managing the recent acquisition and mergers, Playtech, one of the biggest gambling service provider including sports betting, has now decided to strengthen its management team with appointment of three senior names in its top management with different roles to each of them. This is knowingly the biggest change in the top management by the company and they say it is done to cope with the demand to support a series of large-scale Playtech ONE projects and recent acquisitions. Talking about all of the three new names, Richard Andrew is the first one who has joined the sports-focused arm of Playtech as chief operating officer while Danny Angus will take the role of chief technical officer and Eoin Redmond will be serving as sportsbook product director. The past experience of all three made them eligible to take on the pressing job thank to their previous job profiles that will help them justify the job effectively.
Andrew has until be working with The Hong Kong Jockey Club while Angus will be taking over from OpenBet. Likewise, Redmond will be giving up his job as lead product manager exchange and sportsbook at Betfair to take up his new position at Playtech. Talking about the new appointments and how it could help them regain the top space in the market, Mor Weizer, chief executive of Playtech, said: “The three appointments we have made align with our strategic vision for Playtech Sports and our Playtech ONE technology of creating a simple and intuitive experience for customers as well as creating an opportunity to extend beyond online and mobile and into further retail opportunities.
“Ian has done a first-class job during his time with us and delivered exactly what we asked; a stronger, consolidated sports business that is capable of delivering the best Omni-channel technology offering with the industry’s best talent on board to deliver and implement this across large-scale projects.
“On behalf of the Playtech Group management team I would like to thank Ian for his significant contribution over the last 12 months and look forward to continuing to work with him as we continue to deliver excellent results for both Ladbrokes and Coral.”
