Wetten.com hires Betsson’s former head of sportsbook
Jeff Tabone to join Wetten’s Malta office from 8 June after 10 years at Betsson Group
German operator Wetten.com has hired Betsson’s former head of sportsbook Jeff Tabone to lead its own sportsbook operations.
Tabone will join Wetten’s Malta office on 8 June after 10 years at Betsson Group, the last two as head of sportsbook.
His new role as sportsbook director will see him responsible for Wetten.com’s overall sports betting product strategy.
“Jeff’s extensive and collective grasp of both, the sportsbook product and customer, will have a profound impact on Wetten.com,” said the firm’s Daniel Bradtke.
“He will be an asset to the whole organisation as we look to define innovative sportsbook user experiences.”
Tabone added: “I am honoured to be joining very talented Wetten.com team and using my experience and sportsbook expertise to help drive this young company to new heights.”
Wetten.com launched in January, pledging to take on established rivals by focusing exclusively on sports betting and German-speaking markets.
Betsson’s head of global trading Mark Pierson also left the group in February to join Knockout Gaming as head of trading.
