Exclusive: William Hill UK chief product officer departs
Bookmaker begins internal and external search for successor to David Fuke as UK marketing director also steps down
William Hill is on the hunt for a new UK chief product officer (CPO) after David Fuke exited the business to pursue a new challenge.
Fuke joined the operator as a product director in July 2018 before being promoted to UK CPO in December 2019 with both roles based in Gibraltar.
Prior to that, Fuke spent two years in Malta with Betsson, originally as director of customer experience before switching to director of platform product.
The Lancaster University graduate has also worked for Gala Coral, bwin and Ladbrokes.
William Hill will now commence an internal and external search to find his successor.
EGR understands William Hill UK marketing director Tony Smith will also leave the business at the end of this month.
Smith, who held the position for nine months, will be replaced by Alexis Zamboglou, who will take on the marketing director role on an interim basis alongside his responsibilities as business development director.
Confirming the departures, William Hill UK MD Phil Walker said: “I would like to thank both David and Tony for their tremendous contributions and wish them the very best with their next adventures.”
EGR understands the departures were unrelated to the Caesars Entertainment takeover, with the US casino giant eager to offload the operator’s non-US business in H2 2021.
