Online betting company Betway has appointed industry specialist Bob Dutnall as executive director of its Guernsey branch.

Dutnall joins Betway from Sportingbet where he was managing director of European operations. He will lead the Guernsey branch which oversees marketing, including customer acquisition, and administration for the group. Dutnall joined Sportingbet in 2005 and was responsible for restructuring and moving the company’s European operations to Guernsey.
Richard Akitt, Betway Group CEO, said: “Bob’s experience across a wide range of consumer and industrial companies and his online gaming experience at Sportingbet will help us to maximise benefits from a consolidating industry as companies across our industry merge or co-operate with land-based operators and seek partnerships in social gaming.”
Dutnall said: “I am joining a fast-moving highly entrepreneurial company that is in an ideal position to expand rapidly as increased regulation in European markets drives consolidation across the industry.”
