Carolyn Renzin named FanDuel Chief Legal Officer
FanDuel Group has appointed Carolyn Renzin as the operator's new Chief Legal Officer, in a move that will “significantly expand” Renzin’s duties.
At the same time, Renzin will continue in her role as Chief Compliance Officer.
In her new position, Renzin will be responsible for overseeing legal, risk, regulatory engagement, compliance and responsible gaming for FanDuel, with her team working to ensure the company continues to promote customer safety, security and compliance.
Renzin previously worked at J.P. Morgan Chase & Co, where she served as an Assistant General Counsel, working as a regulatory litigator and in the Office of the General Counsel.
Renzin also has previous experience in compliance consulting with Guidepost Solutions, as well as litigation and regulatory enforcement with law firm Stillman, Friedman and Shechtman.
FanDuel President Christian Genetski said: “Carolyn is a passionate, bright, empathetic, and extremely hard-working leader and colleague.
“In her time at FanDuel, she has led transformative change for our business in building out a regulatory and compliance function befitting the current and future scale of our company, and I’m confident she is the right choice to lead our high-performing legal team going forward.”
Genetski was named as FanDuel President in July 2022, while Mike Raffensperger was appointed to the newly created position of Chief Commercial Officer.
The move came as the company looked to support “important leadership continuity,” with each executive having separate and direct reporting routes to CEO Amy Howe.
Flutter-owned FanDuel operates sportsbook, daily fantasy sports, online casino and online horseracing betting products in the US, with the company recently launching branded Evolution live dealer studios in Michigan and Pennsylvania.
